Here’s what membership includes:

  • Members-only programmes: Some opportunities are just for members – like exhibitions or our upcoming Spectra artist development programme.
  • Creative connection: You’ll be invited to regular online meetups where members can share work, talk about challenges, and connect with each other.
  • Support: We do our best to support members to access opportunities – for example, help with applications, writing access riders, or specific access questions. We have a couple of support slots available each month.
  • Promotion: We share members’ work on our social media and promote your news and exhibitions in our newsletters.
  • Input: You’ll regularly be invited to give feedback or ideas that help shape what we do next.
