As summer approaches many town are preparing for Art trails where artists open their homes to the public. Where the public, can meet, talk and buy directly from the artists.

The Brighton open houses start this weekend and carry on every weekend of May, organised by aoh.org.uk Speaking to one artist as they were setting up last weekend she said It is such a pleasure to meet with those who appreciate my work and to spend time with fellow artists Last year I also spoke with visitors who stated with "so many houses on offer they only wished they seen more"

The Steyning trail start just before Brighton trail ends and cover the last weekend of May and the first weekend of June.

With a wide variety of mediums on display, It makes for a pleasurable day out.
