It has been confirmed that Sheffield's premiere art show Art in the Gardens, will be going ahead this year. Full details are yet to be announced, but links to the official website and ways to buy tickets will be posted here as soon as that information has been released.
Peter will once again be exhibiting/demonstrating in one of the Premiere marquees at the annual Art in the Gardens show, in Sheffield. Once a year, Sheffield Botanical Gardens are transformed into an art and craft village, where visitors can wander round and enjoy (and purchase) all the fine exhibits on display. The whole family can enjoy a day out as there are fun activities for children and lots of performing arts, all in a safe and friendly setting.
Last years's show, despite being held under strict Covid restrictions, turned out to be highly successful. Fingers crossed, this year, we can start to put the last challenging 12 months behind us, and build upon that success!
