Outside Art
Responding to overwhelming demand, Outside Art returns to the Russells Nursery site for 9 days in 2009. Following the huge success of last years weekend event, More than fifty artists, both local and national will display over 150 pieces of work in spectacular garden settings.
As last year, we will have something for everyone with work in a variety of media including metal, wood, glass and stone and spanning from the abstract to the naturalistic. As well as many returning artists, there will be new names to spot!
