In collaboration with Festival Director Sharon Brown, PDP is this year invited to exhibit as a group in six distinct central venues, the main two being Melbourne Hall and The Senior Citizens Centre. At the southern end of Derbyshire, Melbourne offers fascinating architecture in a picturesque historic village, housing the now famous Melbourne Festival, which since its first year in 2005 has grown fast from strength to strength, with well over 5000 visitors from far afield in 2009. Over 100 artists will be exhibiting in private houses, businesses and public buildings, providing an ideal opportunity for buying original art and crafts from the artists and makers at the best prices.
