It's slowly warming up here in Perth & Kinross and we're looking forward to the summer event season getting underway. From the Highland Games, Arts & Crafts Markets and Art Club exhibitions to The Game Fair and Potfest Scotland at Sone Palace, there's plenty to choose from.
Several of the Perthshire Artisans take part in a variety of events and exhibitions, making it easy to enjoy their work in person as well as online.
With events happening across all the area, it's a great reason to both explore the glorious countryside and the creativity of the Perthshire Artisans.
Here are some dates* to add to your diary over the summer months where you'll find some of the Artisans and their fabulous work.
