Ons skop hierdie jaar se Bibberfees af met die opening van ‘n kunsuitstalling deur ons eie kunstenaars en ook kunstenaars van naburige dorpe. Dis ‘n voorreg om hierdie mense in ons gemeenskap te hê. Die Vrydagaand voorspel om baie gesellig om die kaggelvuur te wees.

Smithfield is further entrenching its position as an arts centre with the opening this evening (Friday, 26th) of the art exhibition which marks the opening activity in this year’s BibberChill Festival.
