For the first time in three years, the Land Sand Stone Art Festival returns to Bridlington. The event will certainly provide a unique celebration of the coastline.
Organised by Responsible Fishing UK in association with Visit East Yorkshire, the festival runs from Saturday, 10 to Sunday, 11 September.
East Yorkshire’s stunning coastline and artists from all over the UK will inspire a unique celebration of creativity.
Sand & stones will be the theme of the first day, Saturday, 10 September. While the family beach art challenge and an artist’s showcase will transform Bridlington’s north beach.
Among the artists participating in an Open Stone Art Session will be James Brunt, Julia Brooklyn, Sean Corcoran, James Craig Page, Jon Foreman, Mark Antony Haden Ford, Tim Pugh, Richard Shilling, Laurence Winram and more.
The beach will be a source of inspiration for visitors as they watch artists create new works and get tips on creating temporary art in nature.
Land will be the theme of the day on Sunday, 11 September, and Sewerby Hall and Gardens will be the venue. There are a number of activities available in the Gardens, such as woodland art trails, land art pick n mix and workshops.
