Photography Competition Winners Announced

Minehead's Open Air Gallery Refreshed

Some of you may remember the photography competition we ran over the summer to find some new photos for the open air gallery on Minehead seafront! We had some fantastic entries from our wonderful community that reminded us just how lucky we are to live in such a beautiful town.

And we are now pleased to announce the winning entries have now been chosen, printed and are displayed in the gallery. We hope you enjoy looking through the winning entries as much as we did.

Thank you to our great judges Cllr Craig Palmer and Priddy's Photo Shop for volunteering their time to select the winning entries.

Thank you also to Somerset West and Taunton Council and EDF Energy's Hinkley Point Community Impact Mitigation Fund for funding this project.

Finally, thank you to Somerset Sign and Print for working with us on this project. A job well done.
