Frome Open Studios 2013
Originally started around 2005 by a small group of Frome Artists this event grows each year and now is a major part of the annual Frome Festival.
This year over 80 artists are taking part over 32 venues. Almost all disciplines are covered from ceramics, glass work, oil, acrylic, watercolour painting, in fact if you can find a medium not represented let me know. Photography, sculpture, jewellery, textiles, sculpture ........ the list is endless.
The standard of work and professionalism of the artists involved is astounding. All this is compiled by a small group of volunteers giving up precious time from their own work and lives to bring this remarkable event to light each year.
Not only do you get to see brilliant work it is also a wonderful way to get to know the unique town of Frome better as you roam it's many backstreets looking for artists homes, studios and venues, discovering places you never knew existed.
The Trail Map is now available from The Cheese and Grain, Black Swan Arts, La Strada, Divas, Tourist Information at the Library and as many places as we can find to leave it. So grab one when you see it, no matter how many we have printed we always seem to run out. It will also be available to download from www.creativefrom.co.uk or www.fromefestival.co.uk
On behalf of all those taking part, we look forward to welcoming you.
