Bono’s artist niece, Leah Hewson, is a solo sellout success

Talent seems to run in the family as Bono’s niece has a near sellout on the opening night of her solo art exhibition.

Artist Leah Hewson won a six-month residency in the prestigious Royal Hibernian Academy (RHA) gallery in Dublin that culminated in a two-week solo exhibition, which opened last Wednesday night.

“My uncle told me that hard work now pays off later,” Leah told the Irish Examiner.
