The 2012 Arts Trail – The Search Has Started

Preparations have now begun for the 2012 Arts Trail, and we have a few new twists and turns to make the great Arts Trails that you have experienced in the past 4 years even greater!!.  We want to make this year’s trail more accessible than ever – we are appealing to artists from all backgrounds and are providing support to those of you who have never exhibited before, whilst encouraging and promoting those who are seasoned regulars and experienced in exhibiting their art.  A new feature on the 2012 trail will be a series of Art Hubs, each of which will be managed by an arts trail member who will guide you through exhibiting your work.  We will help select the most appropriate venue for your work, making sure that complimentary work is shown together and that you and the visiting public get the full benefit of your creative energy.

The new hubs will not replace art in shops and businesses throughout Leytonstone – it is an essential part of the trail that we integrate art with Local shops and businesses and as we have always seen this done in such an inventive way we are looking for even more ingenious suggestions this year.

You may also have noticed a new Gallery appear in Leytonstone between the last trail and this year’s.  The Stone Space will  be a vital epicentre for this year’s trail, acting as both a huge map and an information centre to all our visitors and artists – you will be able to pick up information – research and buy artists work and also drop into our artists workshops on Thursday the 23rd Feb, Thursday 22nd March and Thursday 19th April from 6-8pm
