Light the South, the large-scale public art trail taking place next summer, is inviting artists to submit striking designs for lighthouse sculptures to be displayed across Southampton and Cowes.
The Wild in Art event, raising money for Southampton Children's Hospital, has made the call out for established and emerging artists to design 8ft Lighthouse sculptures.
Organisers are looking for a wide variety of designs and artistic styles from fine art and illustration to graffiti.

Each sculpture will be sponsored by a local business or community group who will choose artwork from the submitted designs.
If chosen, artists will be paid £1,000 and their art will be shown to thousands of people during the sculpture trail, which will run for eight weeks.
Dr Neda Mohamadi, Art Curator, Southampton Hospitals Charity said: "The trail presents an incredible opportunity for both established and emerging artists to engage, create, and be a part of a unique trail."
Artists should visit lightthesouth.co.uk to complete the artists design submission form by November 30.
