Big Little Arts Weekend

The Big Little Arts Weekend is a Rushlake Green based community arts event which runs from Thursday 25th September through to Sunday 28th September 2025.

Programme
The set list is still in development but already includes:
– Open Art Exhibition, where anyone can enter one or two art pieces
– Workshop by Sussex Harmony
– Live recreation of classic Beatles albums from 1964
– Big little Book Bash, with donations by local book clubs on sale
– Music & Words session where local musicians and writers share their work

Take Part
There is still plenty of scope for contributions of art pieces (to the Open Art Show), singer songwriter performances, poems & stories, gigs by local bands and performances in any area of the creative arts. If you’re interested in taking part, or contributing in any way, contact: thelittleartsfestival@gmail.com

Attend
Most events will be Free Entry. If there are ticketed events, online booking details will be ublished nearer the time.

Volunteer
Like all our community events, this one is completely organised and run by volunteers. So if you’d be willing to lend a hand, and help put on the show, we’d be hugely grateful. Contact: thelittleartsfestival@gmail.com

Support
These days grants are almost impossible to find. So more than ever before we are reliant on the generosity of local individuals and businesses to provide the funds to supplement any income we can generate from the events themselves – and as always it is our mission to keep any ticket prices low enough to make the event accessible to everyone in the local community.  If you’d like to provide a donation to help fund this project, click this link.

Background
This Big Little Arts Weekend is a follow up to the Little Arts Festivals in 2016 and 2024. Following the success of the 2024 festival, the organisers have decided to run small events (like this Big Little Arts Weekend) every year until the next full Little Arts Festival, which could be as soon as 2028.
