Wessex Art Walk with d’Art Studio—A Success!

Our latest I-S X (September 29) event saw I-S staff join a dozen readers and their friends for a balmy evening exploring the boho art community off Portsdown Road. Artists Dick Lim and Milica Bravacic welcomed us into their studios and talked us through their work. As the sun went down, other residents came out in force offering us pizza and tips on how to avoid the neighbourhood snakes (staying on the verandah drinking wine presumably helps). It was a thoroughly enjoyable night, and a real testament to local and locally-based talent. Thanks to D’Art Studio, and alcohol sponsors Liquid Luxury and Certain Cellars for making it happen.
