Some of the Gromit Unleashed 2 artists
The Grand Appeal director Nicola Masters said: “We are incredibly fortunate to live in such a wonderfully diverse city, and we are proud to showcase as much of beautiful Bristol and its surrounding areas as possible through our third charity arts trail.
“Over the last year, we have worked with our amazing sponsors, local community groups and the council to determine the best locations for each sculpture.
“It’s only with the support from our local community that we can continue to support sick children and their families at Bristol Children’s Hospital, so we are delighted that we are able to give something back to our supporters.”
A printed map will be available at the start of July and there will also be a Gromit Unleashed 2 app released, as well as a special passport trail created to celebrate the trail’s innovation themes.
For the first time this year, some sculptures will be interactive, with organisers promising ‘trails within trails’.
