Free festive weekend art market with fine art, craft, textiles, jewellery and prints from local artists and Westbury Arts Centre's resident makers.
Westbury's Winter Art Market takes over the Westbury Arts Centre on Saturday 14 and Sunday 15 November, with the market running from 10:30 am to 4:00 pm both days. It's a curated selection of fine art, contemporary craft, textiles, fashion, beauty products, jewellery, ceramics and prints, alongside work from the centre's own resident artists. The whole place fills up for the weekend, so it's as much about browsing the stalls as it is about seeing what's being made on-site.
It's set up as a festive, art-filled weekend of shopping and open studios, which is the bit that sets it apart from a standard fair. You can chat with the makers, hear the stories behind the pieces, and wander into the studios themselves to see how things are actually put together. If you've ever wondered how a particular ceramic or print came to be, this is the time to ask the person who made it.
The market runs alongside Midsummer, the annual exhibition by the Artist Collective @ Westbury. Their work covers painting, sculpture, textiles, ceramics, printmaking, photography and mixed media, so there's a fair bit to see beyond the market stalls. The weekend also sits within Bucks Art Weeks, the largest visual arts event in Buckinghamshire, when resident artists open their studios across the county.
