OUT and about this Bank Holiday Weekend? explore the delights of leafy Worcestershire and discover some great art too as Worcestershire Open Studios reaches its climax.
The week long festival of county artists and makers launched last weekend and comes to a conclusion on Monday, August 29.
And organisers are delighted with the feedback they’ve received already.
“Visitors have shared with us how much they’re enjoying meeting artists. All responses to our survey so far have rated it excellent, with comments about how they’re able to see more artists as the event is on for longer” said Richard Nicholls of Worcestershire Open Studios.
In all some 108 artists are taking part across 91 venues.
All studios are free to enter and there’s a diverse range of artwork to see – painting, sculpture, ceramics, printmaking, jewellery, photography, textiles, furniture making and lots more.
“We’ve heard from visitors who have been inspired to take up a new hobby after talking to artists,” added Richard.
“This is what Open Studios is all about, showcasing local art and encouraging others to have a go.”
Visitors are also encouraged to explore the beauty of the county, and plan an inspirational day out.
