PICTURES: Alnmouth Arts Festival
The event, on Saturday and Sunday, featured more than 70 artists in venues around the seaside village alongside street food, live music and plenty of activities for young people, including circus workshops, puppet making, storytelling, shanty songs and dancing.
This year’s festival poster winner was illustrator Stephen Jeffrey. His work was chosen by a panel of judges as the best portrayal of the festival and all its elements, ‘perfectly summing up’ the annual event and Alnmouth itself.
