Wexford Arts Centre, Arts center in historic Cornmarket building, County Wexford, Ireland.

The structure, completed in 1776, served as Wexford Town Hall and housed the Wexford Borough Council meetings until its transformation into an arts center in 1974.
The center presents year-round exhibitions of visual arts, theater performances, dance shows, music concerts, and educational workshops for all age groups.
