BS5 Art Trail signage agreements

Boardwalk, our lead sponsor, are putting up BS5 Trail signs up for us for the event. Their experience with other trails has shown that it works really well for the signage to go up 4 weeks before the trail.
We need your agreement before 19th July 2025 so that we can start putting the boards up starting August 1st.
Emails have gone out to all the venues and community hubs and cafes.
This year the BS5 Art Trail is 115+ Artists and Makers across 10 community venues and studios and 25 home venues. This year we are also signposting 10 community hubs, cafes and shops.
We are going to start highlighting and promoting all of the Artists and Makers from July 17th so please watch this space!
Once again thank you all – you are wonderful people!

Trail Event September 6th & 7th, 2025
This is a fantastic opportunity for artists and makers of all mediums to showcase their work, network with peers, and engage with art lovers. Whether your medium is canvas, clay, or jewellery, or whatever! Your contribution is what makes the BS5 Art Trail a kaleidoscope of creativity.
– Deadline for applications is noon on 30th June 2025.
– we will close applications for community venues when at capacity.
This year we are going to try and make the trail as accessible as we can with greater emphasis on creative displays that are visible from roadside so that wheelchair users especially can better experience the trail – It will hopefully brighten up the community as well!
Be a part of Bristol’s vibrant art scene.
We can’t wait to see the masterpieces you’ll bring to life!

Save the date!

Our confirmed dates are the 6th and 7th September, 2025, between 11am and 5pm both days.

We are working hard behind the scenes to deliver another fantastic weekend of Arts across the BS5 postcodes of Bristol.

Please check back here regularly for updates, or our main social platforms: Facebook, and Instagram for more information as it comes.
