About this Event

Hidden Door Festival is here and we’re inviting the Artist Development Programme community to experience it together.


Join Evie Rose Thornton, Artist Development Programme Coordinator, for a guided walk through this year’s Visual Arts Programme at Hidden Door Festival. Together we’ll explore installations, collaborations and interdisciplinary works across the festival site, while meeting other artists and creatives in an informal, welcoming group.


This is a chance to experience the festival up close, connect with others, and get a deeper insight into the visual arts programme in a relaxed and supportive environment. You’re very welcome to come along on your own, many people will be.


And once the tour is finished, you can stay and enjoy the evening programme too. Wristbands will be provided for attendees joining the meet-up.


 ✨ Free to attend

 ✨ Open to all Artist Development Programme members

✨ No pressure networking: just art and chats
