Test Valley Arts Foundation was founded 15 years ago to encourage arts in the Test Valley. The Foundation supports and promotes artistic and cultural activity and helps individual artists and art societies. The Foundation was the brainchild of the late Michael Colvin MP who was its first chairman and continued in that post up to his tragic and untimely death in 2000.
A Summer Celebration On 21st July 2006 we hosted a celebration of Arts, Music and Young People together with The Prince’s Trust, to showcase the enormous wealth of artistic talent in Test Valley. For further information click on the poster image opposite.
‘Chapel Arts’ - A New Space for the Arts in Andover
The ‘Andover Chapel’ in St Mary’s Churchyard could get a new role as a workshop and incubator for the arts in Andover. It has been identified by ‘Andover Vision’ as a priority project in this respect as it is located close to existing cultural and educational facilities in Andover. If current plans come to fruition it will re-open in early 2009 as ‘Chapel Arts’, a centre for visual arts and crafts showcasing the finest of Andover’s and Test Valley’s talents.
