This year AiP’s winter exhibition, A Hive of Creativity runs from Saturday, 23rd November to Sunday, 1st December, and will be open every day from 10am – 4pm (Free entry).
There are plans for around 120 artists ( nearly 30 of whom are new to exhibiting in Jubilee Hall) showcasing a broad array of styles and techniques, from striking paintings to sculptures, ceramics and glass. A real showstopper of all the talent that’s right here on our doorstep. It’s also a very good chance to find some great Christmas gifts
On the first day, Saturday, 23rd, from 1pm will be Creative Clay for All – where you can come and have a go at making a ceramic bee with ceramicist Debbie Clarke. All welcome – whatever your age and ability!
Over the 9 days there will also be ‘have a go’ and ‘Meet the Artist’ sessions – calligraphy, glass engraving, ceramics, painting and more. To find out exactly what’s going on daily go to www.artinpoundbury.co.uk
AiP is also, over the week, running a prize draw (see box) to raise funds for both Dorset County Hospital Emergency and Critical Care Appeal and the very important fellow charity ‘Arts in Hospital’ – an initiative that works towards bringing art into hospitals to make a hospital stay just that bit better for patients, their families and staff.
