Create Longridge is a creative arts event with a painting competition at its heart. Artists arrive in the town from 8am and have until 6pm to create brand-new original artwork, from scratch within a three-mile radius of the town centre.
The artists have to paint in a publicly accessible place so visitors can watch them at work. All the work is then exhibited for sale in the week after Create Longridge day, 13 July 2019.
A lively fringe programme is also in place featuring art classes, woodcraft workshops, collaborative textile work, pottery, Fauvist painting, urban art and much more. www.createlongridge.co.uk
