Discover the creative side of the Forest of Dean and Wye Valley, a region shaped by nature and rich in artistic talent. From sculpture trails that weave through beautiful woodland to studios tucked away in rural locations, this is a place where art and environment go hand in hand.

Whether you’re browsing open studios on the farOpen Art Trail, visiting a gallery, or getting hands-on with a workshop, there’s inspiration around every corner. Explore sculpture gardens, admire wildlife art, and meet the makers keeping traditional crafts alive.

Perfect for curious minds, creative souls, and anyone looking to experience the area in a new way.
