Crossing Borders.

This membership association brings together visual and applied artists who reside or work in the Scottish Borders and Berwick Borough. The purpose of the association

is to open up lines of communication and facilitate development opportunities for members. Artists continue to work independently whilst benefiting from any fund raising and marketing initiatives organised by the association. Currently Crossing Borders has a membership of over one hundred local artists, together with a

number of complimentary businesses such as art galleries.

The Art Trail.

Organised by Crossing Borders the Art Trail comprises a period of time during which art galleries and the studios of many local artists will be open to the general public. EPTAS Arts pride ourselves on being one of the few galleries that specialises almost entirely in selling original works of art by local artists at affordable prices. We will be open as usual during the Art Trail.
