Burnham Art Trail

BURNHAM ART TRAIL 

Saturday 22nd June to Sunday 30th June 2019

 

 

Burnham is situated on the north bank of the River Crouch on a peninsula of land to the southeast of Chelmsford, the county town of Essex. The town receives many visitors throughout the summer months, many of them yachtsmen taking advantage of the sailing clubs, enjoying the cruising and racing that is an essential element of the community.

The quayside hums with activity as visitors stroll along the waterside and enjoy views of the river, soaking up the atmosphere or visiting the town’s many pubs, cafés and restaurants along with wonderful live music.

The 2019 Trail 

With artists and venues now matched and finalised, we are now moving on to the next stage of planning for this year’s fun and fabulous trail!

It’s been all go with getting new venues on board to accommodate our NBA’s – ‘new Burnham artists’.  This year we have accepted submissions from a whopping 55 artists, with 17 being first timers.

The local shops and businesses have once again been keen to support our event by loaning their display space to showcase artists and creatives who live, work or have strong connections to Burnham and the Dengie Peninsular.

Many of the artists are inspired by our unique environment and sense of place, reminding us of boating traditions, regional flora and fauna and our marshy open landscapes with their wide skies.

Local artists have been generous in agreeing to open their studios to the public and share their space with like-minded artists from our creative community.

The Trail is volunteer led with participants ‘doing their bit’ to ensure that 2019 brings enjoyment and grand day out for all who visit.

This is particularly so with our ‘Art on the Quay’ days, when Art Trailers will be out there chatting with visitors, demonstrating their working processes and explaining how their ideas are realised.  Visitors will have the opportunity to ‘have a go’ and tap into their own creativity, with printers and ceramicists joining painters to offer a diverse and entertaining dip into our creative worlds.

At the Museum

A Taste of the Trail

As well our featured artists, the Mu­seum will host a ‘Taster Wall’. To give an overview of the whole Trail all of our artists will be displaying one piece to ‘whet your appetite’ for more of their work.We also have our regular favourites:

Works on paper, including limited edition prints, original watercolours and photographs mounted but unframed, provide an affordable way to take home a special memory of your visit to our event.

Secret Postcards

Artists submit, postcard-sized original artworks which are displayed throughout the week. For the opportunity to own a little piece of local talent, cards are auctioned through sealed bids.  It’s always a lovely surprise to win a little original artwork. 100% of all money raised goes to help with funding next year’s event.
