A friendly event with hundreds of venues across Oxfordshire where you can see amazing art in wonderful places and meet 1000 artists and designer-makers as they open their studios and welcome you into hundreds of diverse pop-up exhibitions, for free, from 5th-28th May 2018.

Expect the unexpected, be inspired, diverted and delighted – and even find a unique treasure to carry away.

Talk about art created locally, the inspiration and the making process; watch demonstrations and maybe have a go yourself. Or simply feast your eyes on a huge range of creative activity, from painting, photography, textiles, sculpture, and ceramics, to furniture, glass, mosaics, jewellery, digital art and much more.

During the first week of the festival (5th-13th May) visit the beautiful North and West Oxfordshire where venues can be found nestled from Burford and Chipping Norton in the Cotswolds across to the historic market towns of Bicester and Banbury, and in the second (12th-20th May), 200 art spaces across the city of Oxford itself welcome you in. The third week (19th-28th May) takes place in South Oxfordshire with venues along the Thames from Faringdon to Henley and the Ridgeway from Wantage to Thame.
