This year’s featured artists include Will Carr, celebrated for his graceful kinetic sculptures that move elegantly with the breeze; Martin Adamson, whose lifelike animal sculptures capture fleeting moments in nature; and Hayley Jones, who brings the natural world to life with her intricate wire creations inspired by garden birds and riverside scenes. Ian Marlow, working in stainless steel, glass and bronze, offers striking contemporary pieces, while Rachel Ducker explores the emotive form of the human body through expressive wire sculptures. Allan Mackenzie presents bold works that reflect themes of family and belonging, and Frances Warren contributes stone carvings and recycled glass pieces influenced by the local landscape and the River Wye.
As one of the oldest working trout farms in the country, Bibury Trout Farm also offers a fantastic day out for all ages, with activities like fish feeding, nature trails, play areas, and fresh trout to take home – making it a perfect stop for family days out in Gloucestershire.
