It's still great, great weather on Anglesey, so if you are hesitating about coming to see the Arts Weeks don't - get in your car or on the bus or train!  Don't delay, this weekend (14 and 15 April) is the last one of the Weeks.  There is plenty to see and you can incorporate a walk or beach trip in between visits to studios and galleries.

The studios and galleries open this weekend are listed below. Also the exhibition in the Canolfan Ucheldre Centre in Holyhead, where many of the artists taking part are displaying one or two pieces of their work is still on.  In addition there is a harp concert on Saturday in the Ucheldre Centre at 10.30am with Deian Rowlands and, for something completely different, later that day at 7.30pm a bands night featuring Valleum, Frizbe, Gola Ola and surprise guest appearance of The Bedheads.  The Sunday film is the animation Barnyard showing at 3.30pm in Ucheldre again.  Julie Roberts is the artist in residence in Ucheldre on Saturday 10am-1pm.

A superb free full colour 48 page Guide to the weeks has been produced and is being widely distributed to locations such as libraries, schools, Tourist Information Centres, hotels and many retail outlets.  Copies of the guide can also be obtained from the Ucheldre Centre (01407 763361), and a downloadable PDF copy is also available from this website see Arts Weeks.  The Guide lists participants in circular geographical order and the activities by date order in the schedule. Wherever possible locations, and particularly those which are difficult to find, will be signposted with a purple Forum logo and arrow.
