Watch: First artwork chosen for Weldmar’s Stampede by the Sea trail as excitement builds
16th October 2024
< BACK TO NEWSThe first steps toward transforming Bridport, West Bay, and Lyme Regis into a vibrant art trail have been taken. Sponsors and partners gathered at Duke’s Auctioneers to choose the designs that will adorn the majestic elephant sculptures next spring.
Sixty shortlisted designs were on display, each vying for the chance to be brought to life by the talented artists that created them.
Each sponsor had three choices to make, but it wasn’t an easy decision for anybody…
Stampede by the Sea begins in March, and is a partnership between Weldmar Hospicecare and Wild in Art, with the objective of raising both vital funds and awareness for the Dorset charity.
Opportunities are still available for local businesses and organisations to sponsor an elephant sculpture. Find out more about this here.
