SATURDAY 5th & SUNDAY 6th NOVEMBER 2011
A major part of CLASSIC YASS weekend, the ‘Arts Trail’ runs over both Saturday and Sunday featuring the arts & culture of the Yass Valley Shire. Initiated by YASSarts, a cultural tourism website, the ‘Arts Trail’ features artist’s open studios and exhibitions, music and dance, poetry and writers workshops and theatre.
The purpose of the YASSarts is to draw attention to arts & culture in our region. The YASSarts website’s broader purpose is to be that of an inventory – a kind of listing of all individuals or groups working within the arts, whether professional or amateur, within the Yass Valley Shire. The amount of professional practitioners in the region is quite astounding – people with national and international standing – but the idea of the YASSarts website is to also provide a platform and profile for those who do not make a living from their art but whose work is no less noteworthy.
