Get Involved!

The deadline has now passed for artists to take part in the inaugural Sutton Festival Of Arts, although volunteer stewards are still being recruited.

There are many ways you can be involved in the SECOND festival, which will take place on Saturday July 11, 2009:

  • Take part in one of our workshops
  • Come along and view performances or exhibitions
  • Volunteer as a steward
  • Share your artistic talents by delivering a workshop
  • Perform or exhibit as an artist
  • Sell your work at the creative market

All are welcome to join us on the day but we do ask that performers, stall holders and exhibitors are local artists. By this we mean:

  • they were born in, or now live in Sutton Coldfield, or
  • they are a member of an arts organisation or educational institution that is based in Sutton Coldfield
