2026 Bailiwick Wildlife Photography Exhibition
This Friday the 30th of January, Guernsey Arts welcomes in the 2026 edition of The Bailiwick Wildlife Photography Exhibition!
Now in its fifth year, this community exhibition continues to go from strength to strength, with submissions from photographers of all ages. It showcases the unique and varied range of wildlife that our beloved Bailiwick has to offer, inviting the viewer to slow down and take a deep look at the beauty of nature.
This year is a record year with over 90 wildlife photographers of all ages taking part in the show. We are so excited to see that the show is so loved and appreciated by Island photographers and extremely grateful to 2026’s sponsor, Mourant, for supporting the ethos of the show for a second year running.
Education is a core outcome of the Bailiwick Wildlife Photography Exhibition. We are grateful to the Nature Commission and to feature Judge Tim Harvey for joining us in judging this year. In addition to the core awards, we look forward to revealing the winner of two special awards : the Mourant Sustainability Award and the Barry Wells’ Award for the most promising student photographer in the Pollinator category.
Last but not least, this exhibition would not be possible without our wildlife photographers. We thank them for their work and hope that you enjoy the stories and moments that they have captured within this exhibition.
The Bailiwick Wildlife Photography Exhibition takes place at the Greenhouse Gallery within Guernsey Museum at Candie. Normal admission applies, free with discovery pass.

Fanny Davies International Piano Series: Jeneba Kanneh-Mason
The Fanny Davies International Piano Series seeks to build a welcoming community for new and existing audiences with a passion for piano music.
Join Jeneba Kanneh-Mason, one of the UK’s most exciting young pianists, for an evening of radiant and imaginative piano music. A BBC Young Musician finalist and now an exclusive Sony Classical Artist, Jeneba has captivated audiences for her expressive and compelling performances and interpretation.
Her programme opens with Bach’s Partita No. 5 and Beethoven’s “Tempest” Sonata before exploring the lyrical and evocative sound-worlds of William Grant Still, Debussy, and Florence Price, and concluding with Chopin’s 3rd and 4th Ballades – pinnacles of Romantic piano writing.
This fantastic performance will take place at St James, next Wednesday the 4th of February. A workshop will be taking place from 4pm, followed by the recital at 7pm and ‘Meet the Artist’ Reception at 8:30pm.
Secure your place in the audience today HERE.

JACKSON MATHOD
Your latest Global Collection performance is here!
Make your way to St James next Friday the 6th of February, as Mathod takes to the stage from 8pm for an evening of incredible music.
Jackson Mathod is a multi-instrumentalist and singer. Drawing on influences from the likes of Miles Davis, Roy Hargrove and Christian Scott to name a few.
In times where everything can feel too heavy, Jackson’s music delivers a very simple and universal message : have fun, move, and enjoy the amazing musicianship on display.
His album ‘COME ON NOW’ released in 2022 was the defining step in Jackson’s journey that saw him getting accolades from across the board with BBC6, BBC 1Xtra, Jazz FM, Jamie Cullum, Gilles Peterson showing strong support. Constant editorial support since day 1 with State Of Jazz, All New Jazz, Jazz Funk & many more consistently featuring Jackson’s music.
Jackson studied Jazz at Guildhall School of Music and Drama back in 2009. However, never feeling fully embedded in the Jazz world, he quickly went onto the session musician circuit, playing for high profile artists such as Stormzy and Jordan Rakei.
He then went on to collaborate with various musicians and producers, creating a vast catalogue of music for someone his age.
Seating will be cabaret style, balcony tickets available.
Pick up your tickets before they’re all gone!
