Swindon Open Studios at the Swindon BIG Arts Day

Saturday 10th July was "Swindon Big Arts Day" at Lydiard Park.

We had a table in the Art & Craft tent in order to promote the coming open studios with the public and reach more artists living in the Swindon area.

Benoit Philippe painting on the day to give a flavour of what visitors to the Swindon Open Studios 2010 can expect.

The success of the event surpassed the organiser's expectations. They were hoping to have five thousand visitors and twenty thousand visitors came during the day.

Many people sign-up to be added to our mailing list to get more details when the time of the event approaches. We also met some new artists.
