The 15th annual Banbury Art Crawl was a smash hit – even with the first blustering snowfall since the holidays – over the first weekend of February. More than 100 artists filled Buildings 10 and 13 during the Feb. 7-8 event, featuring just about every medium you can think of: woodworking, a variety of paintings and drawings, jewelry, metalwork, pottery, textiles, beadwork, and more.
