I’m very excited to announce that it is nearly time for Warwickshire Open Studios (https://www.warwickshireopenstudios.org/) . This year I will be exhibiting at 3 different venues so hopefully, you will be able to catch me at one of them if not all of them.
On the 19th and 20th of June, I will be exhibiting alongside 8 fabulous artists and makers at Art on the Lawn at Leamington tennis and squash club. We also have two emerging artists joining us for the weekend.
25th – 27th June and 2nd – 4th July sees me at Art at St Nicholas House exhibiting with five other artists in the most wonderful venue in Leamington Spa.
25th June – 4th July I will be part of the Kenilworth Artists exhibition. We are a group of 20 artists showing our work at St John’s Church in Kenilworth.
I hope you will be able to pay us a visit. We are all thrilled to be able to show you our new work and we are looking forward to seeing you in person. All restrictions will be in place according to government guidelines at the time.
There are lots of plans being made and ideas bubbling under the surface at the moment. Watch this space for more information coming soon or check out my Instagram feed: jacqui_smithson and my Facebook page: Jacqui Smithson Art for regular updates.

A new year brings new beginnings. This year as well as creating new textile artwork I will be working on some beautiful new felt bowls which can be filled with simple grasses or your favourite plant. They can, of course simply stand alone.
Pretty felted bowls filled with greenery.
Bowls can be made to order in a range of greys, blues and soft naturals to match your decor and range from £15 to £40 depending on size and shape. Please use the contact page to make an enquiry.

‘Postable gifts’
We are a group of 8 Warwickshire-based artists, makers and small businesses and over the next 12 days, we will be sharing a collection of beautiful gift ideas for Christmas. Keep your eyes peeled over the coming days for our selection of artwork, textiles, knitwear, jewellery, pottery and print.
Please see the Warwickshire Open Studios website for details of all their featured Artists and members. We are carrying on virtually until we can all meet again. If you look at my gallery page you’ll see a felting demonstration too.
