Windsor, Berkshire ~ Performing Arts
Windsor Arts Scene advertising and listing local artists, local music, local arts with weekly music

About us:

Windsor Arts Scene is a community website providing local established and up-and-coming artists / musicians / dramatists the space to showcase and sell or promote their work.

Compiled by local artist Phil Atkinson. I was aware that there was no easy way to reference the local talent around the area and developed the Windsor Arts Scene as a central portal to fill the gap. Where do you go to find a local artist to hire as a guest artist at a local School? If you want to hire a solo guitarist or a band for your function / event, where do you look? Now there is the Windsor Arts Scene, helping the local community – Free of Charge! Yes! No Charge to the artistes, no catch!

Visitor Comment;
‘Great to see a site that not only lists the musicians, but enables you hear samples of their work’

Windsor Arts Scene in association with Jagz, Ascot. Graham Steel has been a keen advocate of the site since it started and writes weekly updates for the blog to let people know what’s on – Open Mic Nights, Gigs and Festivals etc.

If you are a local artist and/or musician, or have another arts-based discipline that you would like to promote, please contact us. we will be pleased to hear from you.
