The daffodils are out, it’s Spring again and the Wivenhoe Art Trail is firmly in sight! Whether local or travelling from afar, save the date and book your accommodation, because the Wivenhoe Art Trail is even bigger than ever this year, with many new talented makers alongside established favourites!
We’re hoping for some beautiful spring weather for the Spring Trail, featuring our exclusively, home grown artists and makers, all within ambling distance of each other. To ensure you see all of the exceptional talent on offer, make a weekend of it so that you don’t miss anything.
Our riverside town, with its quaint streets and waterfront history, makes for a delightful weekend of meandering around the many studios and seeing art and crafting in action.
From paintings to textiles, collage to photography and ceramics to prints, each venue will be offering innovative and original work for discerning arts and craft lovers. Wivenhoe makers continue to evolve their work and there are always new creative progressions to discover. This birds eye view of studios offers visitors an insight into working practice and encounter great, creative conversations. It’s always a pleasure to share techniques and creative processes.
Last year’s Spring Trail saw Millfields Primary School children display their art work at St Mary’s churchyard and we are pleased to announce that this year we are extending this offer to Broomgrove Primary School. The Trail organisers are keen to encourage the next generation of home-grown makers and you can expect to see even more washing lines of laminated work hung in the churchyard.
