The Visual Arts in Somerset inject an array of colour and expression into our lives.
How dull it would be without the insight into these talented artists’ mind-sets and creativity.
Your investment allows SAW to fund vital education and outreach work.
Friends make a vital contribution to SAW’s success and fund opportunities, bursaries, and placements for graduates and emerging artists, encouraging them to develop their talent.
Your donation funds opportunities for artists to work in communities with little access to the Arts.
Thank you Somerset Art Works
