What we offer

Artists

Championing creative voices and bold ideas

We believe artists are vital to the way we understand the world. They challenge perspectives, spark new ideas and offer ways of thinking that can shape our society and communities. Art has the power to connect, question and inspire, and we are here to support the people who make that happen. Through opportunities, resources and connections, we work with artists at all stages of their careers, helping them to develop their practice, share their work and build sustainable creative lives.

What’s on offer

Membership

Our membership programme gives artists access to a range of benefits that support their professional and creative growth. Members enjoy free entry to selected events at Humber Street Gallery, exclusive exhibition opportunities, organised visits to galleries and institutions in other cities, and discounts in our café. Membership is a way to stay connected, be part of a creative community and access opportunities designed to help you progress in your practice.

OPEN House

OPEN House is Humber Street Gallery’s workshop series, designed to encourage the sharing of ideas and practice-led learning. Workshops are exploratory, engaging and often hands-on, offering space to experiment, perform, talk, share skills or combine these approaches. Led by a diverse range of invited artists from different practices, backgrounds and geographies, OPEN House takes place in the gallery or online, making it accessible to artists wherever they are.

Artist Talks

Our Artist Talks programme offers artists the chance to hear directly from peers, both local and international. These events are an opportunity to gain insight into different practices, processes and experiences, as well as to connect with other creatives. For artists, attending a talk is not only about listening, but about exchanging ideas, building networks and finding inspiration for their own work.
