‘I am enormously grateful to Oxfordshire Artweeks 500 on-line which enabled me, as a beginner, to share my exhibitions work with the public. The positive feedback I got in the virtual on my first Artweeks exhibition encouraged me festival to go on working and making. Without Artweeks, I don’t think I would have had the courage to launch myself as a professional jeweller.’ Leonie Bennett

‘I found out in my first year as a member of Artweeks that it is more than just showing work in one’s studio: it is about contact with people, recognition by the public and being seen regularly so peoplebecome familiar with one’s work. Being part of Artweeks led me to other places in that first year as a full time artist and I have now exhibited further afield on the strength of the confidence Artweeks gave me.’Robert Strange

Look out for Artweeks TAKING PART events in the autumn to hear more and ask questions. You can choose to exhibit from home, or find a local artist group/venue. Then register for membership of Oxfordshire Artweeks and submit exhibition details as either an individual artist or as part of a group from October.
