THE BURITON Art Trail is always a hotly anticipated event on the village calendar – and this year there is added music to serenade visitors.

The trail of eclectic arts and crafts, at various venues, takes place on the weekend of June 24 and 25, from 2pm to 6pm.

Sentimental Journey will be performing their upbeat numbers in the village hall from 3pm on the Saturday, and The Petersfield Ukulele Band will be providing witty and lively renditions on the Sunday at the same time.

There will be art in the village hall, including offerings for the light-hearted ‘Turn Up Prize’, as well as teas and home-made cake, with proceeds going to charity.

If you are inspired to enter, take your entry to the village hall between noon and 2pm on Saturday, for a £1 entry fee.

New for 2017 are workshops and demonstrations. Andy Cheese, who created the sculpture in Rams Walk, Petersfield, will be at work in the village hall on Sunday.

At Highcroft Potters in Bones Lane there will be demonstrations of woodwork and lino printing, and on The Green, Ted Underwood will be showing his wood carving on both days. The Hoploft Sculpture Garden will be open, as well as Tim and Francesca Concannon’s subterranean room.

The Five Bells pub will be displaying work from the village’s Art Group.
