THE biennial Goring Gap Festival will return in June next year.

Ginny Avery, the artistic director, will lead 10 days of performances and creative workshops.

While the full programme is still under wraps, previous events are set to return and new experiences will be added, including music, theatre, visual arts and family fun.

To support the festival, become a friend by donating £50. This helps fund low-cost activities during the festival.

Friends will receive a handmade gift created by children and an invitation to an afternoon tea at the final concert. To volunteer, email Adrienne via help@gap
