Well, we achieved what we set out to do… put Art by local professional artists into shop windows and extend the food festival.
With 3 days to go, we have been reflecting on what we could do better next year and gathering information from the artists about what they would like for next year (and if they want to take part next year!)
I had a serendipitous moment yesterday, while browsing in Oxfam, someone came in and asked if the artwork was for sale. So I gatecrashed the conversation and took their number, passing it onto the artist. The Art Trails first sale.
So we are now busily collating our evidence, evaluating our performance, and excitedly looking forward to Mondays meeting of the Festival Committee.
Tired, but happy.
