Want to get involved?
VAC is run entirely by volunteers and we are always keen to welcome people who might like to support our work by helping prepare and hang exhibitions, help with stewarding or publicity. If you have a specific skill, or are willing to give up a couple of hours a month to help out, please get in touch.

About us
Visual Arts Cheshire (VAC) is a Northwich based arts organisation and Comunity Interest company.
Our aim is to promote visual arts in Northwich through a variety of initiatives and events including exhibitions and workshops.
We are currently based at Barons Quay next to the Odeon Cinema and opposite Wildwood. We have previously held exhibitions at the iconic Weaver Hall Museum, the Plaza cinema/bingo hall (closed in 2011).
We continue to plan further events. We run the summer Art Trail and produce the Northwich Calendar each year. In 2018 we introduced the Children’s Art Trail which is now a regular annual feature.
