Launch of Kelham Island and Neepsend art and studios tour

I’m really pleased to launch a brand new walking tour that will highlight the artistic side of Kelham Island and Neepsend.

The walk will be lead by local artist and director of the Kelham Island Arts Collective (KIAC) Simon Wigglesworth-Baker, and will not only highlight the amazing art that can be seen around the area, but it will also give a chance to see inside some of the artist studios. It will show a completely different side to the local area from the focus on history on the original Kelham Island Walking Tour.

We’ve been planning this walk for a while, and with the increased interest in the art scene in the area, it’s great to be finally launching it. The first walk will be on 5 August, with them then taking place on regular dates afterwards.

You can read more about the walk here, and bookings are available as usual via Eventbrite.
