Horningsham Art Hub

Saturday 12th October 2024

HORNINGSHAM ART HUB?

Are you a visual artist looking for a supportive community?

We have had some exciting chats with arts promoter Stephanie Edwards and artist Miles Cantelou Art recently! They would love to start a regular meet-up to connect with like-minded artists and become part of a vibrant community where we can share ideas, perfect our craft and exhibit diverse artwork at regular shows and we all agree that Horningsham Village Hall would be a wonderful place to base this creative hub!

All are welcome, whatever your medium – whether you paint, sculpt or blow glass we can provide a platform to showcase your talents and connect with fellow creatives.

If you feel motivated, contact Stephanie via stevie6336boa@gmail.com
