After a few weeks of planning and adapting to a new online model so you can all enjoy from the safety of your own homes, we’re proud to launch 2020’s Virtual Artists Trail, beginning today until 5th July.
Once again, the trail is proudly sponsored by Property World - our sincere thanks go out to them for supporting art locally in these challenging times!
Take a look at what’s in store below…
Each artist has their own gallery ready and available to view now! Over the coming weeks, we’ll continue adding more new artists, so make sure to check back regularly.
Artist’s work is available to buy from the artists- you might just find the perfect piece to brighten up your home during lockdown!
Want the full experience? Feel like you’re actually there by visiting a selection of 3D Galleries, which you can walk through, and take a guided tour to view the art as if you were there in person.
A little tip- these experiences work best when viewed on a computer/ laptop. New galleries appearing throughout the trail…
WORKSHOPS, DEMOS & MASTERCLASSES
Starting from Mid-May, Artists will be hosting a whole range of interactive workshops, to brush up on your skills, or start a new hobby.
All our workshops will be listed on our website as they are confirmed. They’re all free, and we ask you to ‘pay what you can’ to support Sydenham Arts.
Supporting local has never been more important; a group of local businesses wil put one artwork from the Artists Trail on their website. Look out for the image whilst browsing their site and doing your online shopping. Collect each image to enter our prize draw! More info to follow later this month.

Dedicate some time to let whatever it is know how much it means to you!
