SHAF Arts Trail 11-27 October 2019

The SHAF (South Hams Arts Forum) Arts Trail starts on Saturday 12 October – two weeks of public access to artists’ studios and gallery spaces to see their work, talk with the artists and enjoy their hospitality. This includes half-term week so we may have lots of visitors in town.

Before the SHAF Trail starts, we have our preview party on the Friday evening. 11 October, 6-9pm.

WHAT’S HAPPENING AT BEACON HOUSE?

At Beacon House, the preparation for the SHAF Trail has started.

• Invitations to the preview party have been sent. If you’ve not received one, contact me.
• Food has been ordered – canapés for Friday evening
  … and cakes from Samphire Foods for the daytime visitors during the rest of the fortnight.
• We have restocked the the beer fridge and the wine racks …

• Later today, Chris Pring will be bringing his collection of ceramics. These will be on display in the hallway, and in the sunroom.
• Tomorrow, we will have received all of Michael Hill’s paintings to hang. These will be on the mezzanine floor.
• Wednesday, work starts on creating the brochure … and I have the SHAF signs to put up at the top of Bonfire Hill.
• Thursday, we will be setting out my affordable art: cushions, mugs, table mats and coasters, glass coasters and chopping boards, pill boxes, key rings and fridge magnets.
• Friday, it’s time to set up the house for the preview party: plates, serviettes, glasses …

So much to do!
