Artist in Residence
2018 saw a new first for the Festival, with the appointment of James Budden as our Artist in Residence. James, who lives in Sherborne, will be painting at key events again this season – do look out for him and say hello. Prints of his work are available to buy online.
Award-winning Sherborne Abbey Festival is already renowned for its support of music in Sherborne, Dorset and beyond. We are delighted to be working closer with a local artist once again this year, creating original pieces of art that reflect the glory of the Festival’s unique settings and performances.
