Arts in Eden is my brand new blog, designed to showcase the best of the Eden Valley's music, art, film, dance and theatre.

I've lived in Eden all my life (well, apart from brief detours to Ullapool, Whiteley Bay and Sheffield) and think that there's a huge amount of fantastic arts events going on that more people should get to know about.

I hope with my blog I can interact with the art lovers of the Eden Valley who read The Westmorland Gazette. Perhaps we can share knowledge on the hottest venues, exhibitions and music acts? Perhaps you'd also like to tell me to pipe down once in a while...I've been told I like to talk, sometimes just a bit too much.

HERE'S TO ARTS IN EDEN, ENJOY!
