Bear’s Big Adventure Trail 2026

The Bear Art trail will contribute to the social, cultural and economic growth of Perth and Kinross by attracting visitors to our beautiful area.
The Bears will be strategically placed in streets, parks, and public spaces, transforming our community into an open air galley.
Each Bear on the trail will be unique, designed and painted by talented artists, and sponsored by local businesses.
Our small bear cubs will be painted by local schools as part of our learning programme. They’re smaller in size but big on creativity!
The sculptures will then be sold at auction to raise much-needed funds for YMCA Tayside, supporting a variety of youth work services to young people aged 8-25, mainly from disadvantaged backgrounds.
