Good to see the Bradford on Avon Food and Drink Festival setting up just up the road from us again this morning. Let’s hope its a great success and brings the punters down to our beautiful little corner of Bradford.
There’s always plenty to do and see around the Tithebarn Workshops… the units are open… the cafes are ready to go… the paddle board hire firms are setting up… the sun is shining… so why not come on down and soak up the atmosphere?
You can check out ticket information and more details about the Food Festival on their website:
• ARTISAN MARKET • STREET FOOD MARKET • DEMONSTRATIONS FROM LOCAL & CELEBRITY CHEFS • LIVE MUSIC • KIDS FUN • FUN DOG SHOW AND MUCH, MUCH MORE Saturday 11th June 10.00am to 6.00pm Sunday 12th June 10.00am to 5.00pm Victory Field, BA15 1LE
We had a cracking night out yesterday as guests of the President of Larkhall Athletic FC, Steve Hall, to watch their midweek game against relegation threatened Mangotsfield United. The only negative was the result with the Larks going down 0-2 to the Mangos. It was a valiant effort by a depleted Larkhall team that was reduced to 10 men after a harsh refereeing decision. However, the welcome and hospitality shown by the club was amazing and we had a thoroughly good evening at what has to be the most picturesque football ground I have ever been to.
As match sponsors our advert was in the program, along with a really nice welcome message: “Joining Steve will be Mike Pugh and his wife Serena from SerenArts. SerenArts also sponsor Larkhall, having both a pitch side advertising board and a match day programme advert. Mike and Serena run SerenArts Gallery and gift shop next to the Tithe Barn in Bradford on Avon. In addition, Mike also offers design, printing and computer services”.
If you look very closely you can see our hoarding on the far side of this goal mouth action.
Good luck to the Larks for the remainder of the season and thank you again for a great evening.
We have just had the pleasure of printing another batch of greeting cards for graphic artist David Snashall. You can follow his work via his Instagram or by visiting his website.
If you would like more information or a quote for putting your artwork on to greeting cards please contact us at any time.
It’s that time of year when you have a bit more time to get things done, so we have been revamping the Tithebarn Workshops website ready for the coming year…
If we’ve missed anything or there’s any additions you think might be useful for our visitors, please feel free to use the form below to give us your feedback…
I was going back through some of our earlier posts and came across one I did after the first week of Lockdown 1. We were promoting our book design and printing services to those of you who now had the time to write that book you’d always talked about. After all the subsequent incarcerations you should be finished by now and looking to get yourself published!
Here at SerenArts we can take your draft book and guide you through all the stages to getting to publication and welcome your active input at every stage. For example, we have just been commissioned to design a book of watercolour paintings taken from a large collection of sketch books. The sketches are by a lady who recently passed away and her son wants her paintings to be shared with family, friends and the public.
To discuss your project with us and find out the costs involved, why not give us a call (01225 868644) / email, or pop down to the Tithebarn Workshops to visit our gallery.
We have actually started one of our New Years projects a little early and have begun to add all our printing and design services to the main SerenArts Gallery website / blog…
So whether it is a book printing job or simply a photocopy you are looking for, you will be able to find it all in one place.
Please come back again soon to see what has been added.
We are taking orders for Christmas cards from your artwork. Why not send a more personal card this festive season… and show your work to the world!
From as little as 85p each (including quality envelope) we can create a bespoke 5″ x 7″ card with full colour printing to the front and back and your own message inside in black and white.

SerenArts have been doing graphic design work with France Today and French Entrée magazines for some time now. We work closely with the advertising department creating their print and online content. One of the slightly less taxing jobs is the private sales advertisements, where people are usually selling a property in France. They are, however, the ones that can often get you dreaming…
I was going through my older files to free up some hard drive space… as you do!… and I came across a few images that we used on a project for the Bradford on Avon Preservation Trust some years ago…

We were involved in the setting up and printing of the book about the Barton Farm area by Margaret Dobson and Gareth Slater ‘Barton Farm – The Last Thousand Years’. I had no idea about the amount of history there was in the area our Workshop occupies. A very interesting project indeed…
Hope you enjoy looking at some of these great old paintings.
