Go Racing In Yorkshire is very excited to announce that the talented and popular artist Darren Bird will be joining the Summer Festival which runs from the 16th – 24th July! Darren will attend two meetings of the festival, Ripon on the 16th July and Pontefract on the 24th July. Darren will be creating an exceptional and unique piece which will depict the nine Yorkshire racecourses. He will work on a giant piece of Perspex drawing the outline at Ripon and painting in the colour and finishing touches at Pontefract. All attending will be able to watch the master at work!
This ‘one off’ will then be put up for auction and all proceeds will go to the Injured Jockeys Fund which is the supported charity of the Go Racing In Yorkshire Summer Festival 2016.
