From Friday 19th - Sunday 28th November Winchester is awash with local artists and crafts people's Open Studios which are a great place to go for more unusual Christmas presents and inspiration. I spent a day in Winchester last year visiting just a few of the studios and had a wonderful time seeing lovely things and wandering around places I've never visited before. Some of the work is in proper studios and others in people's own homes, it makes a great change from trudging around the shops.
Some of the studios I definitely want to visit are:
Eileen White, Claire Vine & Sarah Green
282 Textile Artists
Jenny Mitchell
Jan Griffiths and Dee McNamara
The Studio
Badger Press
Do check the website link as not all of the studios are open every day.
As well as the Open Studios there's also
The Making Merry City Space Exhibition
at Winchester Discovery Centre, Jewry Street, Winchester.
Saturday 13 November - Sunday 2nd January
and
Dazzle - Art Deco Fashions from the Roaring 20s
in The Gallery of The Winchester Discovery Centre
I'll certainly need more than 1 day this year!
