‘Fat Goose’ by Judy Stevens at AOH<br />
The creative Christmas shopping opportunities abound... <strong>Brighton</strong>’s<br />
Artists’ Open Houses continue until the 10th, with more than 50<br />
houses on the festive trail. [aoh.org.uk] The famous <strong>Brighton</strong> &<br />
Hove Calendar is out, with 52 images by 21 <strong>Brighton</strong> photographers<br />
including Roger Bamber, Kate Benjamin and our very own JJ Waller.<br />
And Nick Sayers has produced a calendar of ‘solagraph’ images of local<br />
landmarks. They are created by pinhole cameras - made from beer cans<br />
and photographic paper - with exposure times of three to six months.<br />
They’re available from City Books and Kemptown Bookshop or at<br />
Nick’s Etsy shop (where you can buy pinhole cameras too).<br />
The <strong>2017</strong> Artists and Makers market is at Lewes Town Hall on the<br />
2nd with upwards of 80<br />
stalls, home-made cakes and<br />
an art table for the kids too.<br />
(10am-5pm, £1 entry, kids go free). The Turner-Dumbrell<br />
Workshops in Ditchling are holding a Christmas Shopping Day<br />
on the 9th. Studios offering a variety of work including fine art<br />
prints, jewellery and calligraphy will be open from 10am-4pm<br />
and there’s plenty of free parking in the old farmyard. Enjoy free<br />
mince pies and mulled wine (or coffee and cookies) whilst you<br />
chat to the makers. [turner-dumbrell.org]<br />

Congratulations<br />
to the new Director<br />
of Ditchling<br />
Museum of Art<br />
+ Craft, Steph<br />
Fuller, who takes<br />
up her post in<br />
January. She has<br />
described the museum’s<br />
‘internationally<br />
important<br />
collections and<br />
beautiful building’ as a ‘jewel in the South<br />
Downs National Park.’ We couldn’t agree<br />
more. [ditchlingmuseumartcraft.org.uk]<br />
