'GARDENS OF ART'

CHILLESFORD OPEN GARDENS & EXHIBITION

Saturday 17 & Sunday 18 June 2006

2pm to 5pm

A vibrant and diverse population of artists in the small East Coast Suffolk village of Chillesford has grown up over the past 20 or so years. This is a phenomenon that has surprised and delighted its residents.

Wishing to embrace this influx of creativity, the people of Chillesford are opening up their gardens to display as much of the sculptures and art as possible.

St. Peter’s Church, constructed of the local coralline 'crag', will house an exhibition of paintings and act as a starting place for the trail. Here visitors can pick up a guide and set off on a tour of the 'Gardens of Art', ending up at The Froize Inn. There they will be able to see an extensive collection of rare pheasant breeds whilst enjoying tea and refreshments.

Please come to Chillesford and enjoy the work of:

Stuart Anderson John Barker

Lisa Berry Shirley Cotton

Laurence Edwards Honor Hussey

Dan Hussey Kate Giles

Jennifer Hall Mark Limbrick

Philip Meyer Chris Summerfield

Sian O’keefe Katherine Roney

in beautiful and idyllic settings
