[ PLACE BASED l SOCIALLY ENGAGED l ARTS PROGRAMMING ]
Asylum Artist Quarter CIC & Asylum Art Gallery LTD work together to develop regenerative arts projects that respond to the need of the region in which we are situated. We work closely with city stakeholders across arts, council, voluntary and community action groups. We work collaboratively with these stakeholders to advocate for the arts as a powerful tool for regeneration and hope.
​
We have two spaces; Asylum Art Gallery which is our showcasing or artist residency space & Asylum Artist Studios which houses 12 regional artists and regular public programming co-run by our collective. ​
​​As a nuerodiverse and disability led organisation, we foster collaboration and warmth, seeking to always provide a supportive environment which puts people first and recognises the importance of grassroots and local consultation being embedded in the focus of our work so that there is benefit to them in our outcomes.
​
We are passionate about equitable access and through our codesigned models, act as community conveners that enable creative innovative approaches to societal issues.
​
Projects range from artist development programmes, mentoring and internships, public arts interventions and city wide events.
