Harborne Village BID is proud to sponsor and support Arts:)Mile Festival 2019
Harborne’s own special arts festival, Arts:)Mile returns for its seventh exciting year!
Brought to you by local artists and ARTSCOOP.
Arts:)Mile is a completely free afternoon of arts and crafts activities taking over 20 different venues across Harborne High Street. A creative way to spend your Saturday!
Over the years, Artsmile has involved many great arts fusions including; doll-making in vintage furniture shops, photography in opticians, painting windows in pubs, embellishing chairs in pizzerias, storytelling in cafes, sculpture-making in restaurants, youth quartets outside coffee house… to name but a few.
The day will begin with a soft opening at 11.30am by local councillor Jayne Francis – Cabinet Member for Education, Skills and Culture with a rousing performance from Midland Opera.
You are invited to stroll up and down the high street and dip into participating venues. (Each venue will have a sign outside – full map and listing of all the workshops happening will be at the bottom of this blog post).
Below are bio’s of some of the artists to give you a taste of who will be part of the amazing Arts:)mile.
Remember this event is completely FREE and no booking is required. See you Saturday for an entire mile of smiles!

“The BID is delighted to be supporting Artsmile 2019. This long established annual activity has become part of the Harborne diary and it provides such a fun opportunity for people to get creative in unusual settings. The tricky part is having to choose what to do!”
