artBEAT is the opening 3 day weekend for the festival showcasing the work of some of Britain’s top artists, designers and artisans in the marquee on the village green in our idyllic Cotswold village from Friday June 4th to Sunday June 6th.
Throughout the weekend the marquee houses talented artists, printmakers, sculptors, jewellers, ceramicists, designer-makers and a host of traditional artisans demonstrating their skills & selling their work direct to the public.
Entry to the exhibitor marquee is free to the public. There’s live music on the Saturday and Sunday afternoon.
If you are an artist interested in taking a stand at artBEAT, please email Kate at artbeat@broadwayartsfestival.com
artBEAT 2021 is kindly sponsored by Richmond Villages
Covid Measures
We will be doing everything to keep our artists, general public and staff safe in June.
There will be a one way system in place, limited numbers in the marquee at any one time and effective (but friendly) marshals making sure there is no crowding of stands or bottlenecks.
We also stipulate mask-wearing in the marquee and may well use our an infra-red thermometer to check people’s temperature before they enter, as an extra precaution.
