Home is Where
the Art Is
Prestwich's community art trail
Thanks to the talent and enthusiasm of local residents ‘Home Is Where The Art Is’ community art trail has been a well loved part of our festival. In 2022 the community art trail returned, this time in partnership with local green heroes Prestwich Environmental Forum! Homes and businesses across Prestwich created environmental themed artwork for their window, driveway, front yard or porch and helped turn Prestwich into an open air art gallery. Explore our gallery of images from over the years below.
About Prestwich Environmental Forum
Prestwich Environmental Forum empowers individuals, groups and organisations in Prestwich to protect our community from Climate Change. They are a community led and run, grassroots group for positive change.
In 2021, they launched their #PlasticFreePrestwich initiative to achieve ‘plastic free’ status through Surfers Against Sewage’s scheme. They're working with local businesses and community groups to reduce the amount of single-use plastic they use. They’re celebrating the great work already taking place to make Prestwich a greener, cleaner place to live. And they’ve organised a series of educational and community events to enable local people to take action around the environment.
If you’re part of a business or group in Prestwich and want to support this project, please email prestwichef@gmail.com.
