An exciting new local collaboration

I am excited to announce a brand new local collaboration, right on my doorstep and in the heart of the community, in the pretty Northamptonshire village of Middleton Cheney.

The Dolphin Inn is under new management and will be reopening on the 21st of November, having undergone extensive renovation and refurbishment; the reopening of this pretty village pub is highly anticipated and I can't wait to see the transformation.

I am even more delighted that the new management team spotted my artwork and workshops on the village Facebook page and reached out to invite me to display some of my artwork on their freshly painted walls! What a fantastic way to add a unique ambiance to the venue and for me to raise my profile within the village as well.

A Thriving Community Space

The new management team, Dawn & Martin, live in the village and have a vision for the pub to become a thriving space for the community to use and enjoy. I am very excited that Art Events form an important part of this vision and I have loved working with Dawn, starting to bring the these plans to life.

Our first event is a Sip & Create in December, painting a Winter Scene from the village. The response to this was phenomenal, with tickets selling out in under a week!

However, I am delighted to confirm that we have now added a new daytime "Coffee & Create" event with the same theme. So, if you missed out on the first Sip & Create, or if a daytime event just suits you better then bookings for are open now.

These events will become a regular part of the calendar, alternating between Sip & Create and Coffee & Create each month and with a new theme every two months. The next Sip & Create is on the 2nd of February and spaces are filling up fast! Book now to avoid disappointment uning the button below.
