Artists seeking others:

Sarah Hanner Hopwood - Hello, I'm new to h.Art and looking to join a venue near Eardisley. I paint small format watercolour landscapes and I'm currently experimenting with clay. I work full time so I could steward for a couple of days but not be there in person for the whole event. My work can be seen here: https://www.instagram.com/sarahhannerhopwood/

I am used to exhibiting and sell frequently in Oxfordshire, Broadway Festival and Country Living events. Thank you!

Contact Sarah at: boohanhop@gmail.com

 

Carol Dash - I am looking to share a venue for 2024 h.Art. I am a felter and ideally, I’d like to be in the Bromyard/North/East area near to where I live and work. My website is: 

https://www.caroldashtextileart.co.uk/

Please contact: caroldash@icloud.com

 

Anna Mcloughlin (Anna Fine Jewellery) - I design and make fine jewellery using recycled precious metals and gemstones and would love to exhibit at a venue in either central Herefoprd or Ross on Wye. I'm happy to steward for one or two days if this is required, but I wouldn't be able to be there for the whole of h.Art. My work can be viewed at http://www.annafinejewellery.co.uk
Please contact Anna at: info@finejewellery.co.uk

Are you looking for artists to join you at your venue, or searching for a great space to show at next year?

If anyone is looking for anyone/anything specific and you want me to put out your request for 2024 on the Artist Notice Board and in the next h.Art ENewsletter. Please let Mel know.  Be specific about what you are looking for and what you are offering and include relevant contact details.

Something along these lines, e.g., from a venue –

Joe Bloggs - I have a barn five miles from Hereford which I think would be a fantastic venue for sculptors, but I would want the artists to organise everything, but I will contribute X percentage of the Venue fee payment. See my venue here/link Contact Joe at X to chat informally.

 

Something along these lines, e.g., from an artist –

Johanna Bloggs - I work in watercolour but on a large scale and I’m looking for a small friendly group to show with, preferably in the South of the County. See my work here/link Contact Johanna at X
