Banburyshire artists ready to be in the spotlight
They are part of a group of 1,000 people across the county preparing their studios and presenting pop-up exhibitions for an event which runs from May 5 to 28, with the Banbury area focus being from May 5 to 13.
Executive director Esther Lafferty said: “From paintings and photos, to sculpture, textile art, wood-turning, pottery, jewellery and more, you are invited to see wonderful art and design – and choose a treasure to take home if you fancy – and take the opportunity to talk to the makers about their methods, materials and inspiration.”
