The West of the Island is gearing up for a weekend of art related activity.
The Western Open Studios and Art Trail or WOSAT is taking place over the bank holiday.
The event, which is in its third year, will see more than 40 artists taking part in 18 venues in Dalby, Kirk Michael, Patrick, Peel and St Johns.
The idea is to give the public an idea of what it is like to be a modern day artist and promote visual arts in the same way as music or theatre.
Wosat will run from Saturday May 3rd until Monday May 5th.
