Fun in the Air!

DakotaWhile we are delighted with all our normal ground-based entertainment, we celebrate the Diamond Jubliee, the Olympics and anything else we can think of by staging more aerial entertainment than ever before!

Not only do we have our favourite fixture, the Kent Spitfire (or should we say ONE of the Kent Spitfires - there are six at Biggin Hill!), but we also have a full display by the RAF's Dakota. Other forms of aviation are equally catered for with our friends from Eagle Heights, with their birds of prey display and also, weather permitting, tethered hot air balloon rides.

Chelsfield Village Fair - where delusions of grandeur known no bounds!

 

Official 2012 painting auction

PaintingWe are thrilled to announce that for the second year running the original painting which will appear on all the 2012 Fair publicity will be auctioned to raise funds for the Fair, the Spitfire and the charitable causes.

This wonderful painting is the work of Eddy Dodwell, a photorealist artist living in Sevenoaks. A student of the famous Camberwell School of Art in the swinging sixties, Eddy worked as an illustrator and now paints full time.  Eddy will be exhibiting at the Fair and has donated this original painting for which we are extremely grateful.  You can see more of Eddy's work on his website: eddydodwell.co.uk.
