As a taster for the Sydenham Arts Festival visual arts trail local artist Tony Tidy is now exhibiting some fish paintings at Billings in Sydenham Road. Tony's paintings provide something interesting to look at while you fish is being expertly de-scaled and filleted.
In addition Tony will be “artist in residence" at Billings in Friday 8th July from 10am-12noon and 2-4pm. Watch Tony paint and chat to him about his art. You might even find yourself included in one of his sketches.
There will be other taster art exhibitions starting later on this month and through July at Sugahill cafe, Blue Mountain cafe, Alhambra Home and Gardens, 140 Interiors, Gurkha's, the Sydenham Centre window, Trattorio Raffaelle and the Dolphin.
Also pick up a Visual Arts Trail brochure of houses and studios that will be open during the weekends 9th - 10th July and 16th - 17th July, available next week at a cafe, shop or library near you.
