The PV was a huge success with our specially invited guests including Weymouth Mayor Kate Wheller.

“It was a great pleasure to attend and open Artweys Summer Exhibition on Friday night. Located in the Baptist Church ,18 Esplanade and running everyday untill bank holiday Monday. The group have growth from strength to strength over the years. Now with around 90 artist members covering every discipline you can imagine. Paintings in every medium, photographers, ceramicists, (look at their website Pauline Ryan) glass work....... They really are an amazing group of very talented people. Very well worth a visit. I will be heading back there myself later in the week for a spot of shopping.”
So said Weymouth Mayor, Kate Wheller when she came along to officially declare the 2023 Artwey Summer Exhibition open!

The exhibition closes at 4pm on Monday 28th August. So, do pop in before then. Lots to see.
