ART IN THE BARN

The recently restored thatched barn at Meon Springs, Whitewool Farm is the home of "Art in The Barn"
With excellent natural light and superb views over the South Downs, it is a unique and inspiring space.

This event is a collaboration between artists Alison Butler (Blooming Designs) and Liz Wellby, who  met at Loughborough University whilst studying for degrees in Textiles and Sculpture in the late 1980’s.

"Our aim is to offer a series of creative opportunities to bring together like minded people, in an inspirational setting."

Each course is  suitable for all abilities and experiences. The ambience and relaxed atmosphere of the 18th Century Barn make it a real retreat from day to day life .
