Happy New Year!

Happy New Year to you all!

Tonight is our first volunteer committee meeting tonight, which will see our activities for this years event very much go up a notch.

Volunteers are the lifeblood of Saltaire Arts Trail and without them the event just wouldn’t run. Its amazing the amount of hours this lovely bunch spend on making things happen and ensuring that the Arts Trail runs smoothly. We’re always on the look out for more volunteers and I’m pleased to say that I’ll be meeting another couple of ‘newbies’ tonight and over the next couple of days who will hopefully come onboard and share the ever increasing load with the rest of the crew.

Theres been a couple of call outs gone out just recently, which you might have seen, one for artists and makers to join our Fair and Open Houses, and one for people to join the Open House element of the weekend. This entails people opening their own private houses and showcasing artists work within a home setting and allows us to offer something quite unique for visitors to the trail.

So all in all it’s a very big THANK YOU to all involved! Its going to be a busy few months but all the hard work and effort is hugely appreciated.

We’ll be confirming elements of the Arts Trail weekend very soon so keep dropping by to catch up with the latest news and we might just throw in a bit of gossip as well!

Take care.
