Blackmore Vale Art Trail, 9 – 17 September

Andrea Jenkins is offering this opportunity to BAS members. It applies to all those who live or work within the area on the map but as with other art trails if artists from outside the area can find a suitable venue they are very welcome, and she can advise on possibilities, but artists would need to negotiate terms themselves.

Commitment by payment by 9th May. Full details of cost and what an artist receives for that price by contacting Andrea Jenkins. andrea13jenkins@nullgmail.com
