THE NEXT CHEW VALLEY ARTS TRAIL
WILL BE HELD ON
SATURDAY AND SUNDAY
OCTOBER 11TH AND 12TH 2025
​
After taking a break for the first time in 21 years, the Chew Valley Arts Trail will be back to resume its place as a major milestone in the area’s calendar, bigger and better than ever.
Application forms will shortly be available for anyone who lives or works on their art or craft in the Chew Valley and there has already been interested expressed by new exhibitors, who want to join in the event. It might seem a long way off, but there is a lot of work that goes on behind the scenes between now and October.
Hundreds of visitors regularly turn out to view the wide range of creativity on show in venues across the Valley. They will be able to appreciate painting and drawing of all kinds, photography, jewellery, sculpture and a range of crafts. The range of exhibitors will be equally varied, from very experienced artists to first timers who are taking the plunge and showing what they can do.
Organiser, Sandy Bell, said the year off had given regular participants a chance to build up a number of new pieces and she was excited to discover what had been created.
“I am really pleased that in addition to our regular participants, we will be involving a number of new faces in 2025 who are keen to take part. We’ve all had a chance to produce work which we hope people will enjoy seeing and those who will be joining us for the first time will refresh the range of what people can view.
“Fingers crossed that the weather is kind to us and visitors can really enjoy a great day in the Valley, visiting studios but also travelling through the countryside, and possibly stopping off for a tea break or lunch in our pubs and cafes”.
