AN art exhibition with a difference starts this weekend.

Works of art will be exhibited in Thirsk shop windows between Saturday and July 11.

Maps showing the Thirsk Art Trail will be available from the tourist information centre, the library and locations displaying work.

The trail, organised by Hambleton artists' network Artreach, coincides with Thirsk festival week.

Shops displaying pieces include Hambleton Books and White Rose Books.

The trail also includes the Zillah Bell Gallery and the Old Courthouse.
