1. Summer Arts Festival 

Warwickshire Open Studios' Summer Art Weeks is set to return this Saturday, 21 June and will run until 6 July, inviting the local community to explore a range of artists in their homes and community venues.

This year sees the launch of the new 'Warwick Trail', with two additional venues added to the Warwick map. 

The trail guides visitors around local exhibition spots, including St Mary's Church, Warwick, Warwick Visitor Centre, and venues on Mallory Drive, Smith Street, Woodcote Road, Wharf Street, Fields Court, Myton Road, and Leek Wootton. 

Among this year's participants is Janette Eslick, a Warwick artist who is using her exhibition to raise funds for Priory Pools Community Centre.

Jannette said: "You don't have to be a serious art-lover to drop by.

"Just drop in for a chat. No charge for a cool drink and a chance to meet our friendly bantams! 

"Come and enjoy some time out in a quiet, peaceful garden room."

All exhibitions are free to enter and are run by the artists themselves.

4. Theatre 

Leamington's Loft Theatre is set to bring big laughs to the stage with its latest production, Up 'n' Under.

The first showing of the play was yesterday (Wednesday 11) and it will run until Saturday 21 June (excluding Monday 16).

Performances begin at 7.30 pm, except for Sunday, 11 June, when the show will start at the earlier time of 5.00 pm.

This Olivier Award-winning comedy follows a depleted and ragged amateur rugby league team who are audaciously taking on their arch rivals. 

The play follows Arthur, a former professional, who's tasked with training the Wheatsheaf Arms, a team that's never won a game and spends more time in the pub than on the pitch. 

Arthur enlists the help of Hazel, a female fitness guru, to turn the team around.
