June has whizzed by and we’re now at the final weekend of our Suffolk Open Studios event. We have over 90 artists and places to visit ready to welcome you between 11 and 5pm, Saturday and Sunday. There is something for everyone and our artists have been busy setting up exhibitions in their studios spaces so you can have a look at all their art work. With something for every budget, it’s a brilliant way to add to your art collections, seek out unique gifts or chat about commissions for something extra special. Buying directly from the artist is always a great experience- because it adds something more to the narrative. Make sure you plan some visits this weekend and support our brilliant creative community here in Suffolk. You are always welcome to visit without expectations to purchase anything and all the studios are free to visit. Studios are open across the county between 11 and 5pm. I’ve got my garden studio open today and can’t wait to welcome lots of visitors. ... See MoreSee Less
