Creativity in the Community
South Bristol Arts Trail
Celebrating creativity in Southville, Bedminster and Ashton
The South Bristol Arts Trail is a free event, open to everyone, and takes place once a year in venues across Southville, Bedminster and Ashton. Artists and creatives from across the area open their doors and welcome visitors into their homes and venues to showcase thier talents.
*All surveys completed by Sunday 28th September will be entered in the prize draw. One entry will be drawn at random on the 10th October and will win £150 towards their favourite artist's work. The selected artist will invoice Boardwalk Property Co Ltd for £150 and the chosen winner will be able to choose a piece of work from the selected artist. Any difference in price above £150 will need to be covered by the winner, not Boardwalk Property Co Ltd. If the piece is below the value of £150 Boardwalk Property Co Ltd will still pay the artist £150. No cash alternative is available for Artwork. The competition closes on the 28th September 2025. Boardwalk Property Co Ltd reserves the right to cancel this competition at any time.

It has been running for over 10 years and is now a well established part of the arts calendar in Bristol. We were delighted to work with the team to promote their event and engage with the makers showing their work over the weekend.
Each year over 100 local artists exhibit in venues across BS3. Artists open their homes and studio spaces, as well as exhibiting in community venues from schools and shops to cafes and community centres. Wander through our streets and discover new artists, favourite local venues and creatives that might just surprise you.
From performers, painters and papercraft to ceramics, sculptures and sketchers, the Trail celebrates the breadth of creativity locally, with something for all to enjoy.
