Come and see the wonder of the South Downs perfectly captured in oil paint by Bonnita Apperley, awarded Highly Commended Artist of the Year, in her first Brighton Open House last year.

This year Bonnita will be joined by special guest artists, also celebrating nature through their beautiful stained glass, garden sculpture, jewellery, pottery and embroidery.

Amble and relax in the cottage garden, savour a cup tea and cake, pop into the studio to watch Sarah’s pottery demonstrations, and enjoy Glowing Garden’s wood and glass sculptures and Hello Earth Ceramics’ stoneware ‘popples’, brightening up the flower beds.

Immerse yourself in the South Downs, and one of the most beautiful chalkland landscapes in England, via Bonnita’s stunning new collection of paintings. See Suzannah’s stained glass work, where dragonflies, bees and flowers abound, enjoy Lara’s exquisite embroidery, and Metal Doves skilfully crafted botanically jewellery, all beautifully displayed in Bonnita’s characterful 1920’s home.
