Wexford Arts Centre is a vibrant cultural venue located in a beautifully restored 18th-century townhouse on Cornmarket. It serves as a dynamic space for contemporary visual art, theatre, dance, and live music, hosting both local and international artists. The ground-floor gallery features rotating exhibitions of painting, sculpture, photography, and mixed media, often with a focus on Irish and European talent. Upstairs, a intimate theatre space presents a diverse programme of plays, spoken word, and performances, while the café-bar offers a relaxed spot to meet friends or reflect on the art. The centre also runs workshops, talks, and community events, making it a hub for creativity and conversation. Visitors can expect a welcoming atmosphere that encourages exploration of modern art in a historic setting.
