"There will be no charge for submitting work. However, on selection, a small ‘hanging fee’ will be charged to help Wooler Arts cover it’s costs. Gallery@No6 is a fantastic space to exhibit art in and this is a great opportunity for local artists to show their work. I’m sure 2023 ‘s exhibition will be just as vibrant as previous years’ “
