About h.Art

h.Art Aims

h.Art 2011 is Sponsored by Steels Kia.

h.Art Herefordshire Art Week is an annual showcase aimed at promoting the large number and wide variety of artists and craftmakers working in the region.

h.Art's core aim is to support the county's artists and makers and promote them both within the local community and to visitors from the region and across the UK with the specific intention of increasing sales of work.

h.Art took place for the first time in September 2002. The 2010 event registered over 20,000 visits and generated sales and commissions to artists valued at around £90,000.

h.Art Herefordshire art week is managed by Herefordshire Council's Arts Service and the h.Art Steering Group. The event is organised by a part-time, freelance co-ordinator.
