For three weeks this summer you will have the chance to go on an Art Walk in Ipswich!

Art Eat Events have organised this event to take place between Saturday 24th July and Sunday 15th August. Participants can download a map from the Art Eat website and head off to seek out the art displays in the windows of indie shops around Ipswich.

Seventeen local artists will be exhibiting and selling their work during the Art Walk in Ipswich which has an emphasis on supporting Suffolk businesses and promoting wellbeing.
