Later in the month nine artists who live and work in Lindfield, will be showing their work to the public. The artists themselves will be on hand – and would love to talk about the inspiration behind their work and answer any questions the public may have about it.

There will be sculptures, oil and watercolour paintings, watercolour illustrations and cartoon illustrations to see. Visitors will be able to find out just how each piece is created - techniques, materials and inspirational ideas. As well as being able to buy original works, there will be prints and postcards on sale, so the art experience will suit any budget! Also open on the Saturday will be a Lindfield Arts Festival Crafts Market in the United Reformed Church hall.

It is hoped that by having the Art Trail and the Crafts Market on the same weekend, they will be bringing together some of the great facets of making and creativity that goes on in our village. Artists participating in the open studio art trail will be: Nicola Baker, Irene Burns, Neil Giles, Rebecca Herrington, Hilary Kennett, Tom McKewn, Georgina Moir, Elizabeth Ockford, and Rose Paba-Jones. Various venues (see map) will be open at different times across 14th and 15th September. Lindfield Arts Festival Craft Market will take place in Lindfield URC between 10am and 4pm on Saturday 14th only.
