Westcliff Artists launched the first Westcliff Art Trail in 2008 to improve the cultural profile of the area, inspired by comments from residents who wanted more visual arts to be promoted and showcased locally.

Aspiring and established artists who live or work in the SS0 or the SS1 areas exhibit their work for a week in May. They use local business premises and community areas in and around Hamlet Court Road as gallery spaces.

The artists work in a variety of media: oils, screen-printing, ceramics, 3D, digital and textiles. Participation in the trail provides opportunities to raise cultural aspirations for local people, offering opportunities for creative engagement on an individual basis and also raising awareness of career pathways within the creative and cultural industries.
