Everyone at Under the Edge Arts is deeply saddened by the death of artist Rob Collins. Rob was one of the founder members of UTEA, playing a vital role in getting us established in the community. He taught weekly painting classes in the hall, has exhibited work and supported other exhibiting artists including his students, and was the driving force behind the very popular FRED Talks. He will be very much missed, and we extend our sympathies to his family and friends.

Under the Edge Arts
really needs your help

Like any other arts venue Under The Edge Arts is struggling.

 

Across the country at least 2 grass roots music and arts venues are closing each week along with larger national galleries in the hearts of our largest cities.

Wotton has always been very fortunate to have our own thriving arts community with a venue to call home. This is now under threat due to the ongoing cost of living crisis and lack of public funding for the arts.
