Bookface

Bookface takes place once a year around October time at the Rising Sun Arts Centre, and is organised by volunteer Neile Wright.

This is a showcase for artists hand made bookmakers, small press and anyone interested in the art of bookmaking.

The next Bookface, chapter 8, is on Saturday 14 - Sunday 15 October 2017. As well as stalls to browse and a cafe, Bookface often includes demonstrations, workshops, installations, poetry readings and exhibitions too.

If you are interested in taking part, please email The Rising Sun Arts Centre info@risingsun-artscentre.co.uk

This Weekend's Events (10th to 12th October)

Hi Everyone Autumn has very much made itself at home, with an assortment of funny weather and annoying people on that new-fangled social media informing us all of how many days there are until Christmas. At great length. Every single bloody day.

Shhhh!!! Bookface in the Library!

The Rising Sun's Bookface takes pride of place in paper-form in the library. A beautiful creation by the awesome Jaz Meader!
