Watershed Creative Prize 2025
Due to unforeseen circumstances, the Watershed Creative Prize exhibition has now closed. Thank you to those who have attended and viewed the talented works of our community.
The Watershed Creative Prize provides an opportunity for local artists to showcase their work to the community. This year’s theme, ‘Spirit of Salisbury – a place to call home’, focuses on what it means to be part of the City of Salisbury community.
