Wexford Cultural Companions

Who are the Cultural Companions?
Cultural Companions is a network of adults of all ages interested in arts and culture who attend together as a group.
We are here to provide means to attend cultural and arts events with others around Wexford.
The network is facilitated by Wexford County Council who work with a volunteer to draw up a calendar of events to choose from every three months.
