Sussex Contemporary Presents:

The Barn on The Green

AOH IN DITCHLING

Ditchling has a special place in our hearts here at Sussex Contemporary, Jo & Jason had their very first date at The Bull, and in 2023 Jo became a Trustee Director at DMAC.

We’ve been looking for a location to have our very own AOH venue for some time now so when we found that the barn on the village green was willing to let us show there we jumped to and booked the barn toot sweet!

As with our other Arts Festival shows we have decided on having 2 weekends filled with different makers, artists, and artisans focusing on a mix of disciplines.

Jo’s curated both weekends and she’s delighted to share with you some of the best Sussex-based makers, craftspeople, artists, and artisans to join this AOH showcase.
