WELCOME TO UNITED ARTSPACE
We are an artist run organisation with a mission to inspire, support & connect people from around the world who love creating visual art.
We’d love to help you, find out how…
IS THIS FOR YOU?
We work with makers, artists & designers in the area of visual arts. Even if you don’t feel ready to call yourself an artist, you are more than welcome to join us! We have people in our group at the very beginning of their journey to artists who are established and make and sell art full time….and everyone in between..
THE UNITED ARTSPACE HUB
The members’ Hub is the place to be if you want to learn more about the professional side of being an artist. The Hub is an online resource where guest experts teach and guide artists how to build self belief, whilst finding the best place to show and sell art.
MAKE YOUR MARK
Our signature art course is Make your Mark and this is perfect for people who want to start a new piece of work or a new collection. Make your Mark takes you through the whole process of developing ideas and experimenting with techniqies and the formal elements of art. No formal training is required. You can learn more here.
WE BELIEVE…
…there is a place for everyone in the art world
but fear is the biggest thing that holds artists back. We hate to see fear limiting the potential of artists because we know, if you really want to do or be something, you absolutely can.
