From emerging talents to established names, the fair promises to be a celebration of art for all ages, including the children who’ll be visiting from Swing Gate and Bridgewater Schools.
And there’s a fun activity lined up for families who stop by over the weekend, as artist Catherine Archer explains: “I am very excited that Berkhamsted Art Fair is going to be a fun way to introduce local children to portrait painting. There’ll be portraits by local artists to enjoy and an opportunity to join us painting portraits at our activity table – and it’s all free of charge. See you there!”
The event is hosted by Berkhamsted Art Society and many of its members will be there to answer questions and share their passion for all things art.
One of the artists taking part is Hélène Engrand, whose painting features on the poster. Helene says: “Exhibiting at the art fair is a great way for me to share my work and connect with art lovers. I also enjoy meeting other local artists, talking about their art pieces and future projects. The atmosphere is always very welcoming and friendly. It is all very inspiring!”
