Just picked up my supply of brochures and programmes for this year's Stroud Site Festival 2013 and Open Studios events.   These will be available in many locations around Stroud and further afield in the next days and weeks leading up to the opening of the events in May.   The Open Studios week-ends are 11th-12th and 18th and 19th May 2013 and there are many interesting events listed on dates throughout May in the Festival brochure too.  
www.sitefestival.org.uk  and click on the Open Studios link to view or download the brochure where you can see pictures and full location details for all the artists taking part.  All contact details are given, so it's also possible to contact the artists if you'd like to visit their studios on dates other than those of the official openings.  Easy to follow routes group the artists in areas so you can visit several studios on one day. It's a public event and artists are very happy to welcome people into their studios and working areas.   My own studio will be open and is on Route 03:Bisley - p.14 of the brochure. As parking is limited, it's best to park in Bisley Road and walk along to my studio.
