Wotton Arts Festival
About us...
Wotton under Edge Arts Festival’s aim is to encourage artistic talent, both local and from further afield. The endeavour is to present a varied programme of arts to appeal to all the community.
The longevity of the Festival is due in no small part to its strong community base and the support of local people and organisations.

2020 - the 50th Wotton Arts Festival
Plans for the Golden celebration of the Arts Festival are now well advanced. This will run from the 15th April until 3rd May - a double length Festival for this special year.
As well as all the usual events, such as St. George's day, the Art Exhibition, the Silver Band concert, Turning the Tables, Schools' Music Evening, Festival Concert and Band on the Hill, there will be a Dramatic Society production, and a John Pilkington talk. Something completely new will be Aardman Workshops for adults and children, and literary workshops for children and adults. One of the final events will be Wotton Spring Gardens and Open Studios in collaboration with Under the Edge Arts. Spike Woods and the Oriana Singers took part in the very first Festival, and will be returning for this 50th one.
We shall publish the final programme details in the new year and these will appear on this website.
