Silverdale and Arnside Art and Craft Trail
Arranged by members of the community, the Silverside and Arnside Art and Craft Trail is an event that brings local artists together to exhibit their pieces across different venues throughout the area. This is a great way to explore some of the local area alongside seeing the best of local artists. Make sure to bring your wallets and purses as you are sure to want to pick up a piece or two! This year, the event will take place from the 26th-28th June.
Wolf House Gallery
Based in Silverdale, Wolf House Gallery is a gallery and studio run by mother and daughter artist duo, Janice McGloine and Bells Scambler. The gallery exhibits the unique work of the two artists including one fantastic piece that depicts our very own restaurant, The Royal Silverdale. Both artists are inspired by the local area so you’ll be able to see plenty of pieces that show off just how beautiful this part of the country is.
