Welling Visual Arts
The school specialises in the arts, and has dedicated facilities to support the specialism for the use of pupils and the local community. The provision is known as Welling Visual Arts and includes The m3 Gallery which mainly displays pupils work, and Berwick Road Gallery which displays works by established artists such as David Hockney, Francisco Goya and Walker Evans.
alTURNERtive Prize
Welling Visual Arts also orgasims the alTURNERtive Prize, an exhibition which encourages pupils from Welling School to engage with independent practice and is timed to coincide with the Turner Prize at the Tate. The alTURNERtive Prize was established in 2002 by Henry Ward, and has been judged by critics such as Michael Archer (who judged the Turner Prize the year Keith Tyson won) and has been presented by Richard Wentworth, Hew Locke and Ryan Gander.
