Staying Local in June


Coming up next (after my Brighton Artists Open Houses adventure is over and Amberley Museum’s Traditional Craft Fair has come and gone) will be the Burgess Hill Summer Festival and the opening of the annual Burgess Hill Artists Summer Exhibition!

For the second year running we will be at the Woolpack Pub, so fancy a pint? Fancy some art? Want to browse the art while the partner watches the kids in the playground - or philosophises over the ducks in the pond? Who says we can’t deliver! ;)

The exhibition will officially begin on Saturday 4 June when the pub opens at 12 noon and run daily from 12 noon to 11 pm when the pub closes. 


We will be holding our MEET THE ARTISTS event on Saturday 11 June from 3 - 4.30 pm. 

Please note that this event is NOT in the Festival Guide so please mark your diaries NOW!


As part of the Festival I will also be running a Drawing Outdoors workshop for adults on Thursday 9 June, and another BHA member, Holly Sellors, will be running a Painting by the Pond session for all ages on Saturday 11 June, finishing an hour before the Meet the Artists event starts. BHA mosaic artist, Susan Driver, is also running Open Studio events on Friday 10 June, Saturday 11 June and Sunday, 12 June.
