We are thrilled to unveil the poster for this year’s festival, which once again features specially commissioned work by Village-based artist Marc Kehoe. Marc is also the curator of Framing the Village, the third annual Village Trip art exhibition, for which entries are now open.

The poster will be made available for downloading so festival venues and partners can promote their events, and The Village Trip as a whole.
