North Chingford Art Trail – 28th September to 6th October

78

North Chingford Art Trail is back!

After a five year break North Chingford is set to host its first post-pandemic art trail.

‘A New Light’ is this year’s optimistic theme and is set to shine from Saturday 28th September until Sunday 6th October.

From the Epping Forest Visitor Centre (The View) to Chingford Station Community Hub and all the way down Station Road; venues are opening their doors and lining their walls with the work of more than thirty local artists.

The trail also features three photography exhibitions, an open studio as well as watercolour, photography, floristry and stained glass workshops. On the closing weekend there will also be a featured talk on the radical history of banners, by Alice Gabb.

Love North Chingford Art Group, formed in July 2023 following the opening of the basement gallery at Chingford Station Community Hub, organised this year’s trail. The group is volunteer-run and has organised several art events for children, including junk-modelling and pebble painting. Anyone interested in getting involved with the art group can email lnc.lovesart@gmail.com.
