The hunt is on for artists to step up and show off their work at the annual Leytonstone Arts Trail.

Taking place this summer, the trail will see mini exhibitions inLeytonstone cafes, shops, pubs, studios, galleries, homes, parks and gardens.

Both established and budding artists are being asked to come forward and volunteer their work for the event in July.

Organiser, Hilary Douse said that the 8th annual trail is a great chance for people to get their work seen.

She said: “Anyone can take part.

“This is a great opportunity to take the plunge if you have never shown your work before and if you have, you can reach a wider audience and meet a great group of fellow artists as well as the Leytonstone traders and other communities supporting the Arts Trail.”

Artists have until April 30 to find a venue and register. Visit the website at www.leytonstoneartstrail.org to find out more.
