Should you be looking for an affordable art market to visit, it just so happens the second LTD Edition of the year will be back at the Custard Factory on Sunday 31 August along with the Sunday Flea.
This here is by Trav Art who will be there with some prints and t-shirts:
Ltd Edition. Sunday 27 July 2008 (tying in with the Sunday Flea). Affordable art from contemporary artists. Custard Factory. Here’s a link to some info about the artists taking part.
This weekend a few events are being staged around the city by BCU students doing MA’s in Event Management.
First in my inbox was news of The Fresh Air Kite Workshop on Sat 21 June in Victoria Square:
The workshop will aim to teach children how to put together their very own ‘almost guaranteed to fly’ kite kit, and let them personalise their designs with their favourite colours and patterns
Which sounds fun. All proceeds will go to the British Heart Foundation.
The other event is called Streets Alive and is being run in conjunction with the Custard Factory’s Sunday Flea Market.
We will be exhibiting a number of street entertainers and performers including juggling, dancing, diablo, music and lots of others. The event will be free and there will be a number of taster sessions on different street performances which will cost from £1.
All proceeds from that one will go to the Acorns Trust.
Last year at LTD Edition, an affordable art market organised by Fused Magazine, 30 artists sold their work to over 100 visitors in one weekend. Kerry from Fused has written to say that this year:
We are bringing a touch of culture (not that it doesn’t have bundles already) to the Custard Factory with 4 art markets planned from July onwards, all happening as an addition to the Sunday Flea
If you’re an artist and want to take part then see the site for the contact information. The blog will carry updates on the artists involved and pictures of their work/what’s going on generally.
