Affordable Art & Own Art — Supporting Local Creativity in Chichester

Chichester is home to a vibrant and growing arts scene where creativity, accessibility, and community connection are at the heart of what we do. Local artists and makers showcase original works in a range of media—from painting, printmaking, sculpture and photography to ceramics, textiles and mixed media.  Affordable Art hopes to encourage everyone to discover, enjoy and collect contemporary work without feeling priced out of the experience.

Local venues such as Oxmarket in Chichester participate in the Own Art scheme. Own Art is a national initiative, supported by the Arts Council England, making it easy and affordable for anyone and everyone to buy contemporary art and craft from one of our exhibitions. The scheme allows you to buy a piece of art with 10 interest free payments spread over 10 months, giving everyone the opportunity to enjoy original artworks while supporting creative talent.
