MORE than 50 artists and craftspeople are getting ready for Worcestershire’s first arts trail.

Between Friday, May 27, and Monday, May 30, talented people will be showcasing their work including illustrations, watercolours, textiles, ceramics and jewellery.

The Worcestershire Arts Trail is part of a nationwide network of projects that benefit from the support of Arts Council England and funding from the National Lottery.

There will be 25 locations to visit and many artists will take part in the Artists at Work part of the trail where they will demonstrate their skills and processes and talk with visitors to galleries, workshops and open studios.

Brochures are available from participating arts retailers – look out for the big orange Art Trail signs.
