Pembrokeshire artist to host major solo show and inspire connection this summer

Pembrokeshire-based landscape artist Kate Kelly will present a major solo exhibition titled "Sun, Salt, Soul" from June 15 to September 6, 2026, at Seion Chapel Vestry in St Davids. The show features bold, textured seascapes of local favorites like Whitesands and Newgale, along with a working studio space where visitors can meet the artist and discuss her creative process. Original artworks, fine art prints, and gifts will be available for sale, with admission free.

This exhibition matters because it offers a rare opportunity for the public to engage directly with a regional artist whose work has gained an international following, with paintings held in private collections across France, Germany, and Canada. By combining a solo show with an active studio and artist meet-and-greet, the event fosters deeper community connection to the Pembrokeshire coastline and supports the local arts scene, including Kelly's involvement with the Fishguard Arts Society and Welsh Women’s Art Association.
