Sustainability is the theme of a trail of lights on display in Wincanton later this month.
Artists, shopkeepers, schools and community groups have been invited to create artworks and light installations for the Wincanton Town Festival in Lights.
The artworks will feature in 15 locations in and around the town’s High Street, including indoor retail spaces, hidden alleyways and green spaces. Local businesses taking part at the time of going to press are:
Bootmakers
Sara Kirkby
Wonky Dog Gallery
Cale
Gordon & Mary
Phoenix Hair Studio
The Growing Space
Balsam Centre
Rule #65
Camelot Photography
The Luxury Lampshade Company
High Street Records
Cole’s Yard
Seed Cafe
The event is designed to raise the profile of issues surrounding the environment and to attract new and existing audiences into the High Street to experience its architecture, goods and services. It follows a successful event last year and is supported by South Somerset District Council and the Somerset Community Foundation.
Wincanton Town Festival in Lights runs from Saturday 18 February to Saturday 25 February between 6-8pm.
