North Somerset Council - Supporting the Arts

Public Art

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.
