As I write this on a sunny Sunday morning in Yorkshire with less than a week to go now until the much-anticipated Staithes Festival of Arts and Heritage, it struck me that some of those who may be planning to visit-which will be lovely-may not be too familiar with the village’s maze of streets and alleyways. I would hate to think of you wandering around, lost in search of me and my art(other artists are available). So, here’s a guide to finding me. I’ll be in residence for the Friday evening preview(7-9pm), and on both weekend days from 10 am I until around 6pm.
I will also have two new things to sell at the Festival ( as well as lots of new drawings and cards): a brand-new sketchbook and a 2024 calendar, with launched for the Festival, and both featuring lots of Staithes-themed drawings. If you can’t get to the Festival, but would like one (or both) , just drop me an email on john@drawninyorkshire.com and I’ll be happy to help…
In USA next week so willing miss you. Have a good weekend.
Thank you Lynne
Looking forward to seeing you at the Festival John and, of course, I will definitely require a calendar!
Thanks Virginia…look forward to seeing you..
John, as usual, your art lifts me up. Life has been challenging lately and your art was a very pleasurable step aside. How I wish I was able to come to your event, or even better, your class. But California makes for a rather lengthy commute. We plan to come back to Yorkshire, one of our favorite places in the whole world, and when we do I will make every effort to connect. Until then. Bravo, my friend in art, Bravo!!!
Is there going to be a Arts Festival in Staithes this year?
Yes, as far as I’m aware…September 13-15
