Town centre trail to showcase Trafford College students’ artwork

A trail showcasing artwork from Trafford College students will be displayed across Altrincham town centre from tomorrow.

The town-wide art exhibition has been organised by Altrincham BID and will take place between Thursday 13th June and Thursday 27th June.

It will feature a diverse collection of student art and be displayed in the windows of various businesses and shops.

Each art piece will be accompanied by information and a QR code, providing visitors with further details and access to an online digital gallery hosted on Trafford College’s website.

Additionally, Altrincham BID has created a map pinpointing the locations of the displayed artwork, which will be available on VisitAltrincham.com.

Jane Andrew, Head of Art & Design at Trafford College, said: “We’re delighted to collaborate with Altrincham BID and the town’s businesses again this year, continuing a project that started during the Covid pandemic when physical exhibitions were not possible. We deeply appreciate the support from Altrincham’s businesses.

“By visiting the college’s town-wide art show, you’ll experience the exceptional quality of work produced by our students this year. The displayed pieces showcase the creativity and ambition fostered in our art courses, and we are extremely proud of our students’ bold and innovative efforts.”

Mandy White, Director of Altrincham BID, added: “It’s always a pleasure to work with Trafford College and local businesses on this initiative.

“We encourage everyone to explore the artwork, and we are confident the event will receive strong support from the community, visitors, and the students’ families and friends.”
