Discover Art, Culture and Creativity at Somerset Art Weeks Festival

Somerset comes alive with creativity from 19 September – 4 October 2026 as the Somerset Art Weeks Festival opens doors across the county. Expect exhibitions, studio visits, curated shows, events, and plenty of opportunities to meet the artists behind the work.

This year’s theme, Cultural Connections, delves into the stories, people, communities, and landscapes that have shaped Somerset - from Palaeolithic times to the present day, and from human to non-human life.

Explore new perspectives, discover hidden creative spaces, and experience Somerset through the eyes of its artists. It’s a brilliant addition to the calendar for anyone looking for arts, culture, and things to do in Somerset this autumn.
