ABOUT WESTOW ART EXHIBITION

The Westow Art Exhibition is in it's 20th year.

It all started back in 2006 in the old Westow Village Hall,

as a summer project for a teenager (Sarah)

The exhibition soon outgrew the space, and moved to Westow Cricket Pavilion in 2017 upon its completion.​

​

Since the Art Exhibition started, we have raised over £7,600 for

local causes.  Including Westow Village Hall, followed by helping with the building of the new cricket club pavilion / community building plus donations to various cancer charities. 

​

From the 2024 exhibition we were able to donate £600 to support Martin House Children's Hospital 'Back the Build' project to transform the hospice and deliver improved care and support to

the children and families of Yorkshire.

​​

Over the years, over 3,000 people have attended and with an 

excess of 1,500 exhibits entered.

We are hoping 2025 will be the best one yet.

​​

Back in 2020 we launched this website to enable our community to not only see this years exhibits online, but also purchase artwork for sale during the event and for a whole month after.  This is proving popular.

Our hope that one day the website would not just be for the exhibition, but work as a community hub and celebration of our

local artists, has made small steps in the right direction.

Watch this space over the coming months.

​

​Money raised at the 2025 art exhibition will be used in the      'Westow Art Exhibition Community Fund'.

This will be used to help local community events and projects,

as well as give money to charities, good causes.
