Galleries - May 2019

THE 10th WYLYE VALLEY ART TRAIL 18 - 27 May 2019 Since its founding in 2001, the Wylye Valley Art Trail has established itself as the largest visual arts event in Wiltshire. This year, the 10th Art Trail, is the largest and most exciting yet, with 87 venues, scattered across south west Wiltshire, set in some of the most beautiful countryside this county has to offer. A wide and eclectic patchwork of art & craft by over 390 exhibitors, ranging from award-winning artists with international reputations, to those just starting on their creative journeys. Visit open studios and workplaces, galleries, exhibitions by art groups, student groups and other fascinating events including ‘hands on’ activities, demonstrations, workshops and talks. A unique opportunity to see the high standard of visual arts and crafts currently being carried out in this area, across a wide range of skills, from painting to print- making, furniture making to photography and sculpture to ceramics as well as contemporary art forms such as digital art, installation, video and art using recycled materials. Of the original 2001 participants there are 10 who have exhibited in every Wylye Valley Art Trail since. See images of their work below. View the whole trail at www.wvat.co.uk .
