This is a great way to get some of your Christmas shopping done while supporting local creatives: there will be a whole range of artworks, ceramics, jewellery, prints, photography and a whole host of unusual Christmas presents, cards and other gifts.
There will be a new Virtual Open Houses strand, which will include virtual tours of artists’ houses, studios and galleries. aoh.org.uk
