Art in Poundbury is once again delighted to be collaborating with the Dorset Sunflower Trail (Maiden Castle Farm, Dorchester) organising Art in the Sunflowers – a truly uplifting event in 2024 with even more planned for 2025.
Saturday 9th August is the date – 10.30am to 4.00 pm. Come and paint, sketch, collage, print – whichever medium you like and whichever view YOU choose!
