This Friday at The Waffle Shack, we have a special art class for kids!
In this class we will be painting a ceramic pot, in the shape of a snail! Followed by planting some cress seeds into the pot!
We are thrilled to announce the winning poster of Art at the Beach on Saturday 3 June 2023, has been designed by local artist, Alison Adcock!!
We LOVE the colours in Alison’s artwork and feel it was a great fit to promote Art at the Beach for June 2023!
But let’s be honest… this was a tough competition!! All those who submitted a piece for the competition didn’t give us an easy job of choosing the winning poster! But we would like to thank everyone who got involved and submitted a design. East Anglia hosts a very talented bunch of creatives!
So, what’s next?… you can expect to start seeing this poster scattered around Suffolk and hopefully further afield. If anyone would like posters or can help distribute please get in touch and or leave a comment at the bottom of this post.
Thank you to everyone who is involved and we look forward to sharing the list of exhibitors with you VERY soon!
We love to promote local artists and what better way than to have the work of a local artist on our poster for Art at the Beach!?

What’s in it for you?.. Well, in exchange for us having the right to use your submitted artwork on our posters for the event (this includes printing the artwork on our posters and flyers which will be shared in print and online), we will give the winner a free pitch at the event on Saturday 3 June 2023! Wahoo!
Top tips… Please do not feel you have to create a new artwork for this poster competition. Simply go through your portfolio and submit one to five artworks that you think would sit well with our branding for Art at the Beach.
