The streets of Cowes and Southampton will soon be aglow with a free family-friendly art trail which is set to launch on 13th July 2024 In partnership with Wild in Art and presented by Red Funnel, Light the South features 40 lighthouses, each standing 8ft tall, crafted by a selection of top local and renowned artists to form unique masterpieces. In addition to the main trail, there are 40 smaller sculptures called Little Lights, designed by local schools and community groups, creating a family-friendly trail of discovery and adventure for both visitors and residents to explore and enjoy. Ellis Banfield, Southampton Hospitals Charity Chief Executive, said:
“We’re thrilled to be launching Light the South next month. As well as creating a brilliant adventure for families, this spectacular trail will help Southampton Hospitals Charity raise vital funds for our Children’s Hospital, one of the top 3 paediatric centres across the country.”
The free walking trail will guide visitors through some of Southampton and Cowes’ most well-loved and historic landmarks and streets and will shine a light on art and culture in the heart of the city. As well as encouraging local residents to rediscover the city and town they love, the art spectacle is expected to attract thousands of visitors from outside the area, providing a welcome boost for local businesses.

Unfortunately, it won’t be long before the Feral *rats wreck them, thinking it’s a great laugh!
Yes, these 30 something feral rats stabbing their 50 year old drunk mates.
Maybe put one at St Marys Hospital to replace the Koan!
