10 Days Winchester 2015 — Chalk is a celebration of the arts that takes place in England’s historic capital every 2 years.  We were lucky enough to visit during its opening weekend.

The principle is simple:

We strive to link all sections of the community through
exhibitions and other participatory events. 10 days has a
core commitment to the visual arts and welcomes
participation from all forms of practice. We embrace
collaboration, interdisciplinary practices and
multiculturalism, and foster partnership between
business, education, local government and other sectors.

There is so much happening between 10th October until 7th November and most of it is FREE (yes I know that’s longer than 10 days) ! Highlights include live art in multiple venues, this includes performances, drawing and more.

The variety of things happening over the festivities spans all artistic disciplines.  There are one off events and longer running exhibitions in venues such as The Winchester Gallery and Winchester Discovery Centre
