St Elizabeth Hospice’s Hop to it! Art Trail – East Suffolk

Early details have been revealed for East Suffolk’s participation in St Elizabeth Hospice’s Hop to it! Suffolk 2025 trail. 

Final details are being added to sculptures, which will appear across four East Suffolk towns in this summer’s art trail.

Felixstowe, Woodbridge, Beccles and Lowestoft will host nine large hares and 42 small leverets. These will be spread across the towns and exact details of locations will be revealed soon.

This is the fourth art trail hosted by St Elizabeth Hospice in partnership with creative producers Wild in Art, following the success of Pigs Gone Wild 2016, Elmer’s Big Parade Suffolk 2019 and the Big Hoot Ipswich 2022.

East Suffolk Council have sponsored one large hare and one smaller leveret, and last year two artists were selected by Cllrs Caroline Topping and Sarah Whitelock to design and paint the sponsored hares.

Sarah Edwards is the chosen artist for the large hare, which will be located in Lowestoft.

The smaller leveret will be placed in Beccles, and artist Sarah Bennett is currently adding the finishing touches to this.

The trail will take place from 21 June to 29 August. More information can be found on the St Elizabeth Hospice website.

Residents are encouraged to use public transport when completing the trail. Each of the towns are accessible via rail along the East Suffolk and Felixstowe Lines.
