Brink Contemporary Arts, which has been providing Leamington and the surrounding area with street art since 2012, is running the event and will be publishing a map for the locations of the various murals at a date yet to be confirmed.

Brink's curator Lord Numb said: "At this current time, it is essential to improve mental health and well-being, which we know our work achieves.

"We want to give the local people something to enjoy as they are out for their daily exercise.

"Our festival will be different this year as we can’t invite visitors at this time.

"However passers-by can view the murals at their leisure, while following government guidelines."

Those who are unable to get out or are isolating for a time will be able to view the art and work in progress online.
