Thame Arts and Literature Festival (TAL)
TAL has quickly established itself as an important part of Thame’s
cultural calendar. Authors, artists and musicians gather for a long
weekend in mid-October to celebrate the arts in all their forms
in various venues in the town. Authors have included Joanna Trollope,
Alison Weir, Douglas Hurd, Colin Dexter, the actress Phyllida Law
and childrens’ authors Korky Paul and Steve Cole. Schools
and local art and theatre groups participate to make this an event
for the whole community - whatever their age! Keep informed with
festival website and mailing list via www.talfestival.org
