Art at the Heart of our Village -
A Bicentenary Celebration
21st - 22nd November 2026
2026 marks an extraordinary milestone for Hampton Lucy, as St Peter Ad Vincula Church celebrates 200 years at the heart of village life.
To honour this bicentenary, the church and local community are coming together for a Festival of Art, placing creativity and shared experience at the centre of the celebrations.
Over the weekend of Saturday 21 and Sunday 22 November, the church will host a community-led art festival, filling this familiar space with a diverse range of locally created work.
The festival will bring together artists, photographers, makers and crafters, musicians, residents, and families for a vibrant programme, across two days, that reflects the creativity found within our village and surrounding areas.
This is a celebration shaped by the community itself. Whether through making, sharing, exhibiting, performing, or simply coming along to explore and enjoy the celebration.
Alongside the exhibition, there will be moments to reflect on the church as a shared village space and to celebrate the role it continues to play in community life.
