If you’d rather sit back while someone else does the driving, you can buy a seat on one of our three magical mystery tours. And don’t miss the Spring Fling Fling, a ceilidh on Saturday 23 May at Castle Douglas Town Hall, with music from Two Left Feet and Damsel Jam.

We wholeheartedly invite you to come and join us!

NEWS

Spring Fling is delighted to announce an artist's residency programme in association with Wigtown Book Festival 2009. For more information please click here.

Welcome to Spring Fling 2009. This, our seventh year, has been an exciting one for us, as we have become a Community Interest Company. As we work towards a sustainable, independent future we would like to thank Dumfries and Galloway council for their continued investment and the Spring Fling membership for their enthusiastic support.

Our main focus is making sure that Scotland’s premiere annual art and crafts open studios event continues to inspire and excite. This year Spring Fling will see nearly 80 participants across Dumfries and Galloway open their doors to the public. Buy direct from an artist, watch your favourite maker at work, get stuck in on a workshop or hop from studio to studio through some of the most spectacular scenery in Scotland (for suggested itineraries please see the colour-coded trails outlined on our routes page). We look forward to meeting you!
