Cambridge Art Salon started in 2011 to pioneer equal access to art in the community, through platforms, projects and space. Our interdisciplinary studios support artists and makers at not for profit rates, reducing economic inequality by allowing people the chance to rake creative risks, build micro businesses and new creative practices, regardless of how much money they have.
We also run contemporary arts projects that offer ways for the public to engage with art and promote community cohesion and well being through the arts, collaborating with community groups, charities and social enterprises that support those from marginalised groups. Past projects included curating an annual community festival, The Romsey Art Festival, publishing the Cambridge Art Map, to raise visibility of the art scene in Cambridge.
We believe that everyone should be able to have the chance to access art, regardless of background.
