Arts and Heritage Trail - POSTPONED
​In light of the latest guidelines from the UK Government around Covid-19 and because we recognise our responsibility to look after the health and safety of our artists and visitors, we have taken the decision to postpone our planned Arts and Heritage Trail which was due to take place in May. Our aim is to reschedule the event and we will work with artists and venues to achieve this, but our planning and decision making will be led by how the situation develops over the coming months. We would like to thank all the artists and volunteers who had put so much work into the planning of the event and we remain hopeful that we can still showcase the fantastic work of our members.
Below you will find details of the latest competitions, workshops and other news and opportunities NSA are aware of. If you have a workshop to list or some important news please let us know. If you want to hear about these via our mailing list please sign up below.
