The Peacock Arts Trail will be shaking its colourful tail feathers from 30 September – 8 October; celebrating the wealth of creative talent on offer in North West Wiltshire, just East of Bath.
With more than 60 Open Studios and exhibitions to visit in and around the beautiful town of Corsham, including six venues at Box, this free event is a wonderful way to support local artists and craftspeople, as well as experiencing some fantastic art.

A whole rainbow of mediums is represented from crochet to fine art; photography to carpentry; jewellery making to sculpture. There is something to please all tastes; traditional, modern, unexpected, beautiful, challenging, cute and even amusing.
Organiser Leonora Martin said: “This year’s Peacock Trail is bigger and better than ever before. I’m looking forward to chatting with the makers; discovering intriguing studios; visiting exhibitions by local art groups; browsing for Christmas gifts and maybe making something myself… I might have to sample some of the homemade cake, that’s sometimes on offer, to keep my energy up!”
Free brochures are also available from Corsham Town Hall and other outlets. For more information visit www.peacockartstrail.co.uk.
