Kimpton Art Show takes place in the Parish Church of St Peter and St Paul, a Grade I listed building situated on a hill overlooking the village with spectacular views across the Mimram Valley to the east of the village. Kimpton Art Show was set up by Kimpton Parish Church Restoration Trust for the purpose of raising funds for the church and the village. Kimpton Art Show has contributed its proceeds, via donation, every year since its inception in 1982.
