Constable 250
Published On: August 25, 2026
What a summer it’s been! 
As Constable 250 begins to draw towards a close, it’s hard to believe how much has happened in East Bergholt over the past few months.
Our village has been buzzing with exhibitions, talks, walks, art, music, activities and events, all celebrating 250 years since the birth of John Constable here in East Bergholt. 
You may have spotted our IN OUR VIEW banners around the village throughout the summer, helping to highlight the many wonderful Constable 250 events taking place across our community.
But after such a busy summer, the banners are beginning to look a little tired! So, in early September, we’ll be packing them away. 
It feels like the right time to say a huge thank you to everyone who has helped make Constable 250 such a memorable year — to the organisers, community groups, venues, volunteers, local businesses, artists, performers and everyone who has supported and attended the events. 
And while the main programme may be coming to an end, there are still a few more village events to enjoy! So before we pack away Constable 250 completely, take a look at what’s still to come below.
