Saddleworth art trail-blazer

Some of the artists and premises are listed on these posters

Twenty-one talented Saddleworth artists are setting up a novel trail-blazer to show off their diverse talents.

The three day event, which includes opportunities to visit open studios, will be staged over the bank holiday weekend, May 4, 5, 6.

It will be a multi-venue arts and crafts display backed by enthusiastic businesses providing premises for the artists to exhibit their work.

They include the Cross Keys Inn, Uppermill, Millyard Gallery, Frostery Living and The Limekiln Cafe.

Visitors can take in a wide display of paintings, textiles, ceramics, printmaking, an interactive installation, photography, plus even a needle felting workshop.

Organisers say it will prove to be a very colourful and varied event and a firsthand opportunity to see the work of local artists and artisans across the area and a great day out.

Some of the artists and premises are listed on the posters (above).

Hard copies of posters can be collected from post offices in Uppermill, Delph and Dobcross and Saddleworth Museum, or any of the venues listed.
