Lime Down Harvest Art Competition

Our beautiful ancient landscape and productive farmland is at risk. We are inviting children and adults to paint or draw a landscape showing the land that will be affected by Lime Down Solar.

We will select some paintings to be exhibited at County Hall, in Trowbridge on 22 July but also invite you to join us on the steps holding your painting.

We plan to have a fundraiser art exhibition in the autumn and would be thrilled if you would be happy to submit your piece of art to our collection.
