Jo is curating both weekends and looking for the best Sussex-based makers, artists, artisans, and craftspeople to join our vibrant showcase.

Artwave is the annual festival of artists and makers run by Lewes District Council. Our Plumpton Racecourse showcase allows art lovers to discover new work, meet artists, artisans, craftspeople, and makers, and buy directly from them.
