Bedford Creative Arts aims to become a leading UK visual arts organisation specialising in commissioning for the community.
Our mission is to create common spaces and new communities through contemporary art.
Bedford Creative Arts has exisited in Bedford for 25 years. No longer gallery bound, our aim is to work collaboratively with artists and the people of Bedfordshire to create new art with the communities around us.
We wish to provide adventurous opportunities and experiences for all kinds of people, and to be a welcoming and engaging route into everything the visual arts has to offer.
We want to remain true to our artistic ideals, to value quality art and develop the potential of artists through devising collaborations between established artists and those who are developing their practice. We want to blur the line between artists and audiences by commissioning work that would not be possible without your participation.
We are working with the themes of walking, making and connecting to shape both our artist development and public programmes.
