Exhibitions and Events

Frome, where I live, has a strong artistic community with artists in studios and shops across the town. The Black Swan Arts Gallery has an ambitious programme of exhibitions throughout the year and local cafes such as La Strada and The Garden Cafe showcase artist's work on a regular basis.  The Merlin and Memorial Theatres in Frome run a busy programme of quality performances. Frome has its own community based festival that runs annually in July, putting the spotlight on the wealth and variety of talent in Frome as well attracting top performers across music, dance, theatre and art.  Frome, in the county of Somerset, is close to the Wiltshire border and West Wiltshire's Cloth Road Art Trail is another event celebrating the work of artists in the area.  Along with Somerset Art Week, The Wylye Valley Art Trail and Dorset Art Week, to name just some of the bigger events, the area is well represented artistically across the bordering counties down to the south coast.
