Chew Valley Arts Trail

The annual Chew Valley Arts Trail will take place on the weekend of Saturday 11th and Sunday 12th October 2008 from 10am until 6pm daily. Over 80 artists and craftspeople will open up studios, homes, garages and halls to the public at 24 venues. Where possible, exhibitors will have work in progress and will offer visitors the chance to enjoy the fun of the trail and either browse or buy - paintings in contrasting styles and media, mixed media, illustrations, prints and cards, printmaking, sculpture, decorative glass, pottery, photography, candle craft and jewellery.

Brochures, which include a map and snapshots of the work on show, will be widely available and can also be downloaded from the website www.chewvalleyartstrail.co.uk. Distinctive green signs will guide visitors around the venues. Individual venue holders should be contacted for information on disabled accessibility. Some venues may offer refreshments but there are plenty of places to stop for a drink and something to eat in the area.
