Each year over 100 local, national and international artists show their work in over 60 venues in and around the lovely old town of Arundel on the Gallery Trail, a popular part of the Arundel Festival.
Both the festival and the trail run fromĀ August 17-26, with the trail giving visitors a chance to see a lot of venues that are usually off-limits at other times of the year.
Historic houses and gardens are open and full of artworks, most of which are available to purchase, and there’s a chance to meet and chat to the artists too.
Now in it’s 25th year, the trail includes established and emerging painters, sculptors, photographers, jewellers, furniture makers, textile artists, illustrators, 3D creators, weavers, and presumably candlestick makers too!
You’ll also get the chance to vote for your favourite artist to win the coveted Derek Davis Prize.
It’s a great day out, especially when you combine it with seeing a show or a visit to the castle. Lots of things are also happening around the streets of Arundel, so you don’t know what you might bump into.
All venues are open from 2-5pm on weekdays, and midday to 5.30pm on Saturday, Sunday and Bank Holiday Monday for the whole ten day duration of the festival, and entry to all venues is free.
