MORE than 30 events will be spread across 24 locations as part of Leytonstone Arts Trail.

From July 24 to August 1, Leytonstone Arts Trail will fill businesses and public buildings in Leytonstone with an array of visual arts and design from local artists.

From exhibitions by painters and photographers in shops and cafes along the High Street, to a group show at 491 Gallery, you are bound to find something that inspires you.

There are some more unusual entries as well; an exhibition of stained glass panels in St Andrews Church, an outdoor sculpture show in Langthorne Park and a route through the streets marked by painted stones.

Other highlights include, ‘Lets Fill Leytonstone With Art’. Residents are being asked to place artworks in their windows so that they are visible to passers-by.

Hilary Douse, project organiser, said: “Last year the streets of Bushwood became a gallery with over 80 homes exhibiting art in their windows. This year we hope to fill the whole of Leytonstone with art.”

There will also be the Leytonstone Town Centre Summer Fair and the E17 designers market, with stalls exhibiting artwork and hand made goods for sale, a bouncy castle and face painting for kids, and acoustic music.

On July 29 there will be an artists' film night with films from local and London-based film makers including renowned avant-garde film maker John Smith.

Also, Leytonstone artist Carne Griffiths’ ‘100sqft’ is coming to the Luna Lounge. The 100sqft is work by 100 artists, all one square foot in size and it will be exhibited on the ceiling of the bar in Church Lane.

Most of the events have disabled access and maps can be picked up from Leytonstone and Harrow Green Libraries, 491 Gallery and other participating venues.

The event is an artist-led voluntary organisation led by local artist Frances Bowman. For more details visit www.leytonstoneartstrail.org.
