Good luck with the short films
Meet 100 artists as they exhibit work in their homes and studios.
It’s a nice idea and here’s how it works. Between 28th and 30th of November 2008 100 artists at a number of private addresses in Bristol. For two days you can visit and view their works. Its a great concept - one that gets artists and public all interacting. Its also a good chance to explore Bristol.
This is the second year of the Arts Trail.

Just released is Welsh Arts Now. A new 48 page quarterly magazine that discusses a wide range of art with a Welsh Connection. Its aim is simple - to be fresh, varied, interesting, open, of the moment and with a bit of kick. In other words to be a good and relevant read for all those interested in the arts.
If you’re interested copies can be purchased directly from the Welsh Arts Now web site or through a number of stockists.
Its great to see a new arts magazine come out and I for one hope it does really well.
