EVENTS for Somerset Art Weeks begin this weekend.

A giant billboard was unveiled in at Taunton train station on Tuesday to publicise the 15 day event.

The poster is the largest in a series at rail stations supported by Wessex Trains and Arts and Business.

Each is designed to show the variety of art and crafts on show throughout the county on hilltops and in farms, barns and front rooms.

The Somerset Art Weeks Guide is available free from the county's libraries and Tourist Information Centres, or by post by contacting the Somerset County Council hotline on 08453-459144 or through the SAW office on 01460-259324.
