It's Herefordshire Art Week this week, and I'd forgotten about it because I didn't see any leaflets around Hay this year. Then one of my friends on Facebook told me about someone she knows who is exhibiting as part of the scheme. Her name is Susan Parry, and her work is part of the exhibition at Warehouse 701, a converted World War I munitions shed near Rotherwas outside Hereford.
In fact, there are several venues around Hay that are part of the Art Week. Oil and Oak on Castle Street is one of them.
Then, about a mile up Cusop Dingle there are 5Artists Playing With Fire - they are working with silver, ceramics and glass, and they're based at the Old Stables in Cusop Dingle.
Just across the bridge at Raquety Farm there is Larchwood Studio. Artwork on display includes watercolour paintings, etchings, bentwood sculpture and furniture, willow sculpture and baskets, chainsaw carvings and pottery. There is also a licensed restaurant, run by the lady who used to own the restaurant at St John's Place in Hay, and three other experienced restauranteurs who live locally.
Meanwhile in Clifford, at the Cowshed, Old Pontfaen, is the Channelling Gallery, where Jesse Eve Watkins has an exhibition of paintings entitled Myth and Magic.
Some of the venues need people to book in advance, so please check the Herefordshire Art Week website at www.h-art.org.uk
