Easter Art Exhibition and Sculpture Trail 2025

Open Daily 10am - 4pm

In 1994 an Arts for Everyone grant kickstarted an Arts festival at King Edward’s School. 30 years and two venues later, that is still the underlying mission of AppArt. Our annual Easter Art Exhibition and Sculpture Trail has always been free for anyone to attend and local Schools are invited to see some of the artwork before the main exhibition is open to the public. AppArt continues its tradition of having a very eclectic mix of artworks so there is something for everyone to experience and enjoy.

The venue today is Prior’s Field School and the event has grown into one of the major art exhibitions in the South East of England. Artists come from all over and include full time professionals and members of local art groups.

AppArt has always been fortunate to be supported by leading International and national artists and the list of artists opening AppArt over the years could be a “Who’s Who” in the artworld.  This year Rosa Sepple will open AppArt 2025. Rosa has exhibited with AppArt for many years and is a past President of the Royal Institute of Painters in Watercolours. She has been likened to Marc Chagall  and “her compositions are bursting with vitality and primary idiosyncratic colours, which ingeniously weave together figurative and fantasy, always delighting the censorious eye.” There is often an element of cheeky humour in her paintings.

The last 30 years have seen AppArt grow in reputation and stature and the team looks forward to a bright future and to continue to welcome art enthusiasts to further exhibitions.

AppArt was founded in 2012 by Evelyn & Gwyn Phillips to encourage interest in the visual arts in the Surrey area. They hold an annual exhibition at Prior’s Field School  and smaller events at their Grayswood Studio. They have been curating exhibitions for over 30 years.
