Portishead’s Public Art
Programme continues to
attract world-class artists to
the town. One of the latest
additions is Mark Merer’s
Energy Artwork. Another landmark sculpture
lighting up the cultural
landscape is the newest
addition to Weston’s many
spires – ‘Silica’ by
Wolfgang and Heron. |
We are delighted to be a supporter of Arts Week,
an awe-inspiring showcase for the rich array of
creative talent that exists in our region. Here are just a few examples of the different ways
in which the council supports and develops cultural
activity in the area. |
