Coventry Artspace is committed to supporting local artists develop their careers in Coventry and the wider West Midlands, bringing the benefits of their creativity and inspiration to our communities. For some artists the cost of a studio space and development opportunities is prohibitive and consequently their talent is lost their battle with everyday bills.
Artists often need studio space to make work; experiment; explore their creative ideas; test materials; and generally develop their individual practice. Studio space also provides a workspace where an artist can hold professional meetings, and the opportunity to network, share experience and collaborate with other artists.
In addition to providing studio spaces, Coventry Artspace facilitates mentoring and development opportunities for emerging artists and those exploring a new skills or areas of practice.
We’re raising funds to support Coventry and Warwickshire based artists to access studio space, mentoring and development opportunities. Funds raised through this campaign will be used towards the provision of artist residencies at Eaton House and artist mentoring. Coventry Artspace needs to raise funds for this and for other charitable purposes.
