The Guernsey Arts Commission is committed to creating exciting artistic opportunities for our island community across a wide range of arts skills. We have a dedicated Community Arts Development Officer, (a post supported by the Lloyds TSB Foundation for the Channel Islands) who generates projects and runs workshops as well as forming partnerships with other agencies working in the community, and our sub committees are engaged in facilitating a variety of participatory activities.

We believe that everyone can benefit from taking part in the arts. It is a great way to meet new people, learn a new skill and open up a forum for talking about our community in a creative way. Above all, taking part is fun!

Over the coming months there will be lots of opportunities to join in. You could attend a workshop or come along to one of our events. Better still, if you or your organisation has a creative idea, get in touch with Laura Simpson (Community Arts Development Officer) laura@arts.gg and we can help you to make it a reality. We’ll also be posting resources you can use to run your own arts sessions so keep checking this page!
