Art in Poundbury is looking forward to painting in the sunflowers 🌻 this August at  the Dorset Sunflower Trail at Maiden Castle and, by doing so, being part of such an incredible initiative to raise money for Dorset County Hospital Charity – specifically Dorchester County Hospital’s Emergency and Critical Care Appeal.
In amongst the famous Sunflower Trail🌻, artists will be able to pick their spot  amidst the Sunflowers, or look towards unadulterated views of  Maiden Castle  in one direction and Poundbury in the other.
