Our Artist Community is a free network for local emerging and professional visual artists. The network meets three times a year and is an opportunity to get to know other artists, share opportunities and learning, and hear from organisations that can support your practice.

The Artist Community is open to artists who live, work or study in the London Borough of Richmond upon Thames. 

Email us if you are an arts organisation and would like to reach out to the network.
