Art Trail 2019 will be ......
Buriton Art Trail was started by Jill and Paul Martin in 2010 when they opened their studio at Grantchester House on Bones Lane where they then lived. Visitors enjoyed their work and those of some of their friends. The following year the Grantchester Studio was again opened one weekend and neighbour Steve Atkins contributed some of his sculptures to a display on their front garden. From this small beginning a multi-venue Art Trail was then developed over the next few years.
When Fran Vesey started holding Art Classes at the Five Bells on a Monday evening that became another village focus for Art. Art teacher Liz Moss leads this group and "The Morgue" at the Five Bells often displays work by these students, especially on Art Trail weekend at the end of June. Other venues have included the Church and the Seward Room, the Village Hall, Tim Concannon's Garden Room, Ted Underwood showing craft from the woods on the green near the church, the pottery group at Highcroft in Bones Lane and Steve Atkins' Hoploft Sculpture Garden also off Bones Lane.
In 2018 Buriton Art Trail was held on June 23 and 24 and plans are being developed for the corresponding weekend in 2019. Watch this space for further details in due course.
