A larger exhibition will be held at Egerton Place, formerly Marshalls House.

This building is currently being transformed into a multi-purpose venue for events and other activities by new owners MBoss and GGM Properties.

Works from various local artists in a mixture of styles including digital artwork, paintings and sculptures will be on show.

Families can enjoy two interactive activities during the art trail day.

A free children’s craft workshop will take place at Knutsford Library on Toft Road from 11am to 1pm.

Artist Louise Crawford will lead a collaborative project from 11am.

Adults and children can add their own individual touches to a large canvas which will be displayed after the event.
