Out and About… Royston Arts Festival 2022
Royston Arts Festival returns, and this year it promises to be bigger and better than ever!
The programme is included in The Listing September magazines and also available online: features a broad mix of performance/film, literature/talks, exhibitions, competitions, music and family activity, much of it free, and all of it taking part in the heart of Royston.
Artist Stacey Leigh Ross has again worked with the children of Royston to produce the fabulous cover images on the “Circle of Life” theme.
