🎨 Already on half term? Here’s something worth knowing about…
If you’re staying in Oxford this week, take a trip to Bicester Village to see Beryl Cook and Friends “It Takes A Village” installation, a joyful celebration marking 100 years since the birth of one of Britain’s most distinctive artists.
Famous for her colourful, witty paintings of everyday life and larger-than-life characters, Cook’s world has spilled out across the Village with huge murals, life-size figures and plenty to spot as you wander. The installation is in collaboration with House of Voltaire
It’s fun, free and an easy one to combine with a little half-term shopping. 🛍️
On until 25 October – catch it while you can.
