We’re on the look out for talent, artists, community groups and venues to participate
Discover Melksham through a new lens during The Sham Jam Festival week with our Hidden Melksham Photography Trail.
This free town-wide exhibition will showcase 15 photographs by local photographers, capturing unique locations, overlooked details, and unexpected perspectives from around Melksham. From hidden architectural features to creative interpretations of familiar places, each image uncovers the character of Melksham.
Local businesses across Melksham will be displaying a photograph in their window, creating a town-wide exhibition and exciting trail for visitors to follow at any time during the week.
Each photograph reflects the trail's theme of “Hidden Melksham”... will you discover something new?
