About Us

IMG_0017

Wellington H2A (Heritage & Arts Alive) was formed by Rob Francis and Tony Nicholls in 2007. We had been organising live music events in Market Square for a couple of years, and set up H2A to make it all look a bit more credible, especially to potential funders. We’ve got a bank account, and a constitution, but that’s about as official as it gets. We never wanted to turn into one of those groups that has endless meetings and sub-committees without actually DOING anything. So, with our many helpers and supporters, we keep things simple.

Our objectives boil down to two key things:

  • To promote awareness and enjoyment of heritage and the arts in and around Wellington for the social, cultural and economic benefit of the town and its inhabitants
  • To promote the maintenance, enhancement and enjoyment of Wellington’s built heritage and public spaces

So – it’s about organising events that bring our town to life; it’s about celebrating the ‘makers and doers’, past and present, who give our town its identity; and its about making the most of our buildings and public spaces in contributing to health, wealth and happiness.
