Five artists and makers at Umborne Bridge Studio

Meet the artists

Five artists and makers are looking forward to welcoming you to Colyton. Our venue will be stuffed to the rafters with gorgeous art and craftwork, and it’s the place to be in 2024.

This year’s crew comprises Alex Boon, Anna Brewster, Naomi Brookes Designs, Zee Jones, Jane Llewellyn. Nature art and journaling, expressive land and seascapes, feltmaking, silver clay jewellery and collage - there’s something for everyone here. Don’t want to miss out?
