Our 2023–24 programming year is the Wex at its most energizing and exciting. In the coming year you will find a diverse and vibrant set of contemporary visual art, film, dance, music, theater, talks, and wellness programs all under one roof and extending into our communities.
To help plan your Wex year, Executive Director Gaëtane Verna has selected a handful of programs she wants you to be the first to know about. This is just the tip of the iceberg, and we'll be announcing more in the coming months, so be sure to sign up for updates or follow us on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram to get the latest news.
