- CALLING ALL ARTISTS
Wolfords Village Hall has an unused long wall which is available to local artists to exhibit their pictures/artwork. There will be no charge to exhibitors and the only conditions are that the works are by locals, not political, not pornographic otherwise any subjects, any media, landscapes, portraits, abstract whatever.
The hall is used by quite a lot and your work will be exposed to a good few folks over a period of 2 months. You hang your own pictures , prepare your own display title and price cards and your contact details.
You can come in and change your exhibits as you please. You can hang 1 piece or several.
We hope to have a comprehensive art wall . If successful we will follow this with an exhibition one for local photographers.
