Follow the trail
(4th – 18th July 2026)
We have worked hard to make sure the art trail is accessible by as many people as possible. You can watch the video of a previous Arts Trail here. The video includes some interviews with local people involved in the trail as artists, business, community partnership trustees and others.
We hope you enjoy watching this recording and if you’re able to visit any of the locations and support our local businesses that would be great.
The trail ends on Saturday 18th July so please don’t leave it too late.
You can see some photos from previous events below.
