What we’re about
We Are Artists Community is a non-profit association that provides a supportive, creative and collaborative space for artists of all abilities and ambitions in the UK and the world.
All artists and creative people are welcome, working in any medium, at any level.
For many, being an artist can be solitary – so we aim to offer solidarity, inspiration, creative challenges and ultimately the chance to work, create and succeed together.
Our sessions are a mix of innovative, therapeutic and unique zoom and in-studios art workshops, classes and talks, that include meditation, soundscape and film-making, upcycling and nature, and many more things. We also offer unique and diverse art trips and social meet ups...
We focus on the joys and challenges of creativity but also the reality of being an artist. How to sell your art, and where? Studio costs? Material costs, free resources, financial help, the list is endless… We also offer the chance to make real, working connections and friendships with other creative people, socialise, have fun and make some art.

A creative challenge... and freedom
Along with a soundscape mixed or selected by a member, you can paint, draw or sculpt (if you want!) – the only rule is to create a piece of work in response to the sounds.
The soundscape will last for 40mins, and will be a mixture of different styles, tempo and sound effects.
You may surprise yourself by what you create!
The session will be closed 10mins in, and then reopen after 40mins. All or any artwork will you be posted on the group's insta page, so once the session is over, feel free to send them to the links below...

This is a safe and supportive place for artists of all abilities to share and make art. Creative freedom is one of the most important things as an artist, but so is the safety and well-being of all members of our group therefore if you feel your artwork could be triggering, or cause offence, eg. themes of abuse, please just mention this before you show your work so others have the option not to see it. Thank you
