Powered by the Brighton and Hove Arts & Creative Industries Commission and supported by Brighton & Hove City Council. We exist to support our sector, champion its strengths and advocate for the central role it plays in the city’s life and economy. This site is designed to support the industry through Covid-19 recovery and beyond.

As artists and organisations you are resourceful, adaptable, inventive and generous. This is a moment to unite and protect the cultural life of Brighton & Hove, by being there for one another, finding different ways to connect with audiences and coming up with solutions together to what right now, on our own, might seem unsolvable.

Our contribution to this effort is to create an online directory listing current local arts & creative industries activity; alongside regularly updating information on funds and government grants/loans available to artists, organisations and creative businesses and to act as a central signpost for the city.

Stay safe and well – and when you can, keep on creating, you are the people that make Brighton & Hove such a special city.
