Our Young People's Art Competition is kindly co-ordinated by Maldon Library this year, with prizes generously donated by Tesco. For more details, please click here.
After a fantastic 2010 Art Trail, don't miss the next one!
Grab a programme in town at one of the many venues - or from Tourist Information Centre on Wenlock Way (next to Butt Lane car park) - and follow the map.
Meanwhile, why not pick up an Essex Summer of Art brochure from venues around Maldon? It has details of art trails and open studios across Essex. If you fancy a chance to win two nights' accommodation for two people at the Pier Hotel in the lovely waterside town of Harwich, complete the Summer of Art survey in the back of the brochure, or online at: http://www.visitessex.com/discover/cultural/summer-of-art/survey-monkey-prize.aspx
During the Art Trail, don't forget to call in to the Moot Hall on the High Street, to see our version of the Mad Hatter's Tea Party - complete with wonderfully wacky ceramics by Pam Schomberg, Suzanne Rampton and Peter Deans. There will also be suitably surreal figures created by sculptor/multimedia artist Michael Barter and fabulous ceramics by pupils from local schools.
And don't miss: our Sculpture Trail, now in a new home at the Museum of Power in Langford; a talk on the "Tribal Art of India" by internationally renowned artists Vasant Chinchwadkar and John Doubleday; an exhibition of the winning artwork from our Young People's Art Competition, kindly organised by Maldon Library; and our free young people's workshops (see Diary of Events for full details).

Now in its fourth year, Maldon Art Trail goes from strength to strength, thanks to the wealth of talent in the area, combined with sterling support from local businesses and the Town and District councils. Worth a day out in itself, the pretty market town of Maldon is renowned for its independent shops, boutiques and cafés.
Take a tour around the fantastic array of artwork on
display, most of which is for sale – and why not pick up a piece of original artwork for yourself or as a gift?
Maldon Art Trail is run by volunteers, who want to bring art to everyone, while promoting local artists.
