Maidenhead & Windsor

It’s “last orders” in the challenge to local artists and galleries to “fly the Royal borough flag” at one of the Windsor and Maidenhead area’s most prestigious arts events.

With exhibitors for this year’s bigger-and-better three-day Windsor Contemporary Art Fair – sponsored by Windsor and Eton Town Partnership - already coming in from places as far afield as Sussex, Cornwall and West Yorkshire, the message to artists and galleries closer to home is - “There are only a small number of stands still available, so make your application soon!”

Now in its third year and with an extra day and new, bigger venue reflecting its growing popularity, the fair is moving from its original “home” at Windsor’s Christopher Wren hotel to Windsor Racecourse from Friday November 9 to Sunday November 11 – where it will almost double in size and boast nearly 50 stands with more than 50 exhibitors.

Cllr Colin Rayner, chairman of the Windsor and Eton Town Partnership said: “We are very proud to be able to host such a prestigious arts event here in the Royal Borough – and it would be fitting to be able to see some of the wealth of local Windsor and Maidenhead artistic talent alongside entries from further afield. I will be looking forward to attending the event with my family and fellow councillors.”
