THOUSANDS of visitors are expected to descend on a park for the highlight of a town's arts festival.

Art in the Park at Leek's Brough Park has become one of the most keenly-anticipated events in the Staffordshire Moorlands calendar.

The Leek Guild of Weavers, Spinners and Dyers is promising its largest-ever display at the event, which is now in its seventh year.

Visitors are reminded to take along their cameras to take part in a photographic competition and to join in with photography workshops being run by Rethink Mental Illness in the neighbouring John Hall Gardens.

Moorlands District Council leader Sybil Ralphs said: "Art in the Park has blossomed into a major celebration of artistic excellence in and around the Moorlands. Last year's event attracted more than 1,000 visitors and I am confident that the many attractions lined up for this year's party will help us set another attendance record".
