Welcome
to Free the Art - a community
based project supporting local artists to move forward through our
permanent exhibition space.
Free the Art was conceived in 2009 following the collaboration of
The Chocolate Factory, Element Studio and Oki Doke Media Limited.
With diverse facilities including rehearsal space, professional
recording studio, dance school and a media production company the
businesses involved felt they were in a position to offer local
artists a platform to present, sell and showcase their creations.
Our aim is to create one of the biggest community based galleries
in the region. We want to offer anyone with talent and ambition
the opportunity for their art to reach a greater and ever-changing
audience. With contributions from varied disciplines of art and
artists we aim to be a home for a robust and organic gallery with
a constantly changing landscape.
Art will be exhibited tastefully, securely and with clear indications
of who created the pieces on view. Importantly, art will be exhibited
for free! We hope through the scheme to bring a greater audience
to your art and in turn, bring you, as an artist, to a bigger audience.
Should you be blessed with selling any of your work, the project
will retain a percentage for administration purposes. Please remember,
our aim is not to get rich from your work, our goal is to develop
the gallery into a flagship centre for the arts in the region and
promote local talent in this fine area. We are a community based
initiative and money generated from the project will be used to
develop the space we use to exhibit.
Running parallel to the gallery we aim to develop a network of artists
who will have the opportunity to meet, share ideas and collaborate
through open exhibitions and events at the centre.
If you feel you have created art, in any form which you would like
people to see and tell others about, please download our free Digipack...
