Greenwich Village Arts Trail 2023 –  4 – 5 November 2023 10 am – 4 pm

The popular Greenwich Village Arts Trail is on 4 and 5 November 2022.

On the Greenwich Village Arts Trail, you will visit 24 artists, displaying a fabulous variety of artworks across 24 sites. You will visit award-winning contemporary painters, illustrators, sculptors, ceramicists, jewellers, photographers and textile artists.

The Greenwich artists open their studio doors to the public to show and sell their work.

The number of artists living and practising in Greenwich is amazing for such a small community.

The Art Trail takes you around Greenwich and offers a wonderful experience through bush paths and stunning water views back to the coffee shops at the centre of the village.

Check out the Greenwich Village Arts Trail website for further information on each artist.
