Thrilled that two ‘brilliant young minds’ will be assisting with Wells Art Contemporary
Central Somerset Gazette
|June 19, 2025
WELLS Art Contemporary (WAC) celebrates its 14th year of bringing world class contemporary art to the city - but this year, the exhibition returns to Wells Cathedral for the month of October.
-
“We decided, along with the cathedral, that it would be a better time of year for several reasons,” said Paddy O'Hagan, Chair of Wells Art Contemporary, “not least the fact that Wells is a full-on festival city during October and it makes sense to include art into the mix for locals and tourists alike.”
Whilst the deadlines are imminent for entries into the Installation Show (July 1) and the Gallery exhibition (July 8), the volunteer-led team is preparing for a busy few months ahead.
WAC is also delighted to announce the addition to the WAC team of two talented interns from Year 12 at The Blue School, Elizabeth Adams and Gabriella Unciano, to assist with the upcoming art exhibition.
