With just a few days to go before our artists open their studios, homes, gardens and more for this year's BS4 Arts Trail, here are are a few tips and things to know before you head out!

1. Planning ahead? Get your free BS4 Arts Trail map/guide from Naomi Evans and other public/community venues now, as well as other shops/cafes around town. Guides are available from every venue during the Trail weekend.

3. Most venues are open 11am-5pm, unless otherwise stated, but please double-check on the day, just to be sure!
4. The BS4 Arts Trail is FREE and family friendly.
5. And dog friendly too! But do check with home venues before entering, as some have their own pets, allergies or other reasons for not allowing dogs.
6. We've got some amazing workshops on the Trail, for kids and adults! Most have set timings, and can get very busy, but many can be booked ahead. Check online and book where possible to avoid disappointment.
7. All community venues are accessible, with public toilets and refreshments available to buy.
8. Home venues will have clear signage to welcome you in. Follow signs to meet our lovely artists and their work! (Please respect their privacy and stick to designated areas).
9. The Trail is a great way to explore our neighbourhood.
10. Our beautiful green spaces make wonderful routes between venues. The sheer number of woods & parks are a unique feature of the BS4 Arts Trail!

The BS4 Arts Trail is a treasure-trove of artists studios nestled amongst our leafy streets. In venue 22 you'll find .thomson who specialises in line-work, calligraphy & freestyle, temporary jagua tattoos, which she'll be offering across the weekend. Similar to henna, they're made using extracts of jagua flower to create a deep blue stain on the skin that lasts 1-3 weeks. Eazy is sharing with two other artists who’ll also be showing their work.

Nip down into Nightingale Valley and you'll find studio (venue 20) amongst the trees. Her handmade porcelain lamps, vases and wall panels feature relief casts of leaves, flowers, grasses & ferns, and are always popular on the Trail!

Ceramic lovers should also head over to .ceramics (venue 18) for beautiful, functional earthenware with nature inspired surface decorations, created by monoprint & sgraffito. And of course, her ever-popular have-a-go sessions on the potter's wheel will be running as usual!

Pop down the hill to (venue 19) where Claire experiments with slip & plant ash to create tactile, useful ceramics decorated with abstract landscapes or a simple dash of colour. Kids can play with clay cutters & mark-making while you peruse!
