On the site this week, another packed cornucopia of
information and entertainment.

our Artist Profile featuring Tom Heron, who makes the

When is an Open House not an Open House? When it's
a Church, of course. We stumbled into the Church of
the Annunciation last year and were impressed not just
by the work on display there but by the atmosphere such
an impressive setting creates...
and last but not least, our Open House Virgin is a
worried girl. Why? Because things have been a wee bit
quiet and she's wondering if she's done the right thing
by opening her house. cheer her up by visiting her house
this weekend...
Rally round! it's the last weekend of the Festival.
All that fabulous art will be gone for another year,
all those fabulous bargains gone back into the shops
where the price will be higher. Don't miss it, get out
there this weekend.
Although it's the last week of the Festival, we're
not quite ready to leave you yet. OHO will update twice
more after today, albeit in a slimmer, trimmer version,
so tune in for more news, more articles and to see some
things that perhaps you missed next week.
Until then, good House-hopping!
