'a space' arts: growing creative communities strives to provide opportunities for emerging artists to make new work, develop their careers and for audiences in Southampton and the surrounding regions to engage with high quality artistic experiences. We achieve this through a growing infrastructure of project platforms, currently consisting of the Arches Studios, Tower House, Public Art Projects, Talent Development and Studio Providers Network South. Our studio projects offer a diversity of spaces to support creative careers, catering for the visual arts, screen based practices and designer makers.
