The brochure is out for the Artwave Festival across Lewes district.
It is the event’s 30th anniversary. Artwave runs from 2nd to 17th September.
The organisers say: “We are delighted to be celebrating our 30th anniversary year with our biggest festival yet. When Artwave started in 1993 with a founding mission ‘to make the arts accessible to all’, the festival featured 70 artists across 18 events in and around Lewes.
“This year you can discover work by more than 1,000 creatives, and visit upwards of 180 venues, with free-to-visit exhibitions in private homes, studios, potteries, windmills, railway stations, farms and churches, from Ditchling to Herstmonceux, Newhaven to Danehill.”
We are particularly looking forward to seeing:
