News - Artweeks in Ducklington
Make a date for Artweeks, 10th to 18th May
The annual Artweeks returns to the county from 3rd to 26th May 2008 and will be in North Oxfordshire for the week of the 10th. There are many exhibits in the local area during that week and the best way to plan your visit is with an Artweeks Guide, available from libraries, Tourist Information Centres, museums, galleries, shops and many other public venues. Or visit www.artweeks.org to download the Guide or search for artists by name, location or genre.
There is much going on around Ducklington. Children aged 3 to 10 can ‘Create a Collage’ at a free workshop at Cogges Manor Farm. This takes place 11:00-17:00 on 31st May; call 01993 772602 to book. In Witney, talented photographer Kate Mellersh is exhibiting at 87 Moorland Road (off Welch Way). Her work is known for its colour, vibrancy and humour, so expect some surprises. Check the Artweeks Guide or website for opening times and full contact details.
There are lots more Artweeks exhibits and events in the surrounding villages, Oxford city and right across the county. It’s a wonderful opportunity for the public and artists to come together in a low-key, neighbourly setting and share in the creative activity going on there.
