This, the third year of the Art Trail, promises the same high standard of artwork from exceptional local artists, on display at shops, cafés and public buildings throughout Maldon town centre. Even if you don't think of yourself as a gallery-goer, you should find something to appeal in our wide mix. Almost everything is for sale, so it's the perfect place to pick up a unique gift for someone - or why not choose a piece of affordable artwork for yourself?
And don't miss the chance to win a two-night break at the fabulous Maison Talbooth hotel in Dedham: simply fill in the survey at http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/summerofart2010 to be entered into the prize draw.

During the Trail, there will be a fabulous garden, made from textiles of every description: "Not the Chelsea Flower Show", in the Moot Hall, on Maldon High Street. And don't miss the chance to visit the nearby studio of internationally acclaimed sculptor, John Doubleday, who has created likenesses of an amazing range of extraordinary people, ranging from Charlie Chaplin to Nelson Mandela. Why not check out John's website?
And while you're viewing sculpture, we are delighted to be continuing the "In Olga's Memory" Sculpture Trail, in the grounds of Bouncers, in Wickham Bishops, which hosts Opera in the Orchard each July (10th and 11th this year).
As well as sculpture, we have a programme of artists' talks and workshops, plus - back by popular demand - the young people's free, drop-in art & craft workshops.
And don't miss The Skylarks & Guests on Friday 24th September. Come and have drinks from the bar while listening to stories, music and song. Full details on Events page.
