Sprout Arts is a community gallery, our aim is to support artists and encourage local people of all ages and backgrounds to engage in creative activities and appreciate original art. Which is how we came up with our Community Art Loan initiative.
The next loan will start on Thursday 20th July 2023 with a member's only Preview (get first pick) from 5:30 to 8pm, then we're open to the public on Friday 21st and Saturday 22nd July. We will now be running the Art Loan twice a year - the next one is in January 2024.
The last loan was in January, and there were lots of great new works from many different artists - view them here: www.sproutartloans.com We'd love to see a photograph of yourselves with your art loan, please tag us on on social media.
​
New artists are welcome to join the scheme and we urgently need supporters who can help us run this event in the future - please email sproutcommunityarts@gmail.com
The idea of starting SproutArtLoans.com initiative is simple, people who are members of Sprout (subscription is £10 a year) will be able to borrow an original work of art for six months and pay nothing, the artwork would then be available to someone else or could be bought. Everyone is welcome to join.
The hope is that people who have never had original artwork in their homes will realise how wonderful it is and go on to become art enthusiasts and encourage their friends and neighbours too. Lending sessions will take place twice a year and will allow Sprout members to borrow one artwork every six months free of charge.
​
