Swishy swashy, splash splosh, and squelch squelch! Our We’re Going on a Bear Hunt Art Trails bring the magic of the popular children’s picture book, We’re Going on a Bear Hunt, to life in a blaze of colour and creativity.
Explore our brand new SmileyWorld® public art trails featuring sculptures of the fun, positivity-spreading emoticons by the original, globally recognised Smiley® brand The Smiley Company.
Elmer’s Big Art Parades are sculpture trails inspired by one of the most iconic and widely read children’s book series of all time.
Since 2023, we have been working in creative partnership with multi-award winning, independent studio Aardman to bring their well-loved, Academy Award® nominated film star Shaun the Sheep to towns and cities across the UK.
This #InternationalSculptureDay we are delighted to share with you a video created by Joe, our winner of last year’s Wild in Art Stories …competition.
Joe and his family received one of our owl sculptures as a prize and they have spent the last few months painting an amazing design which references the 17 trails they have visited!
Watch the video to spot the clues to the trails and for the final design 🤩
Thank you Joe, Tilly, Poppy and Busby!
