membership

Art4Essex and their associated regional art collectives are dedicated to helping all artists wherever they may be located.

We offer our members an online gallery to promote their work and the opportunity to be involved in a variety of networking, exhibition and community events.

Art4Essex is always on the look out for affordable exhibition space and unusual locations to show art to the local community. We aim to change the way that art is viewed by the general public, the occasional buyer and art collector. Available wall space for exhibiting seems to be a permanent problem for several reasons - there isn't enough of it, a lot of it is owned by people/organisations that are not actually producing art and most galleries/ large venues are just not cost effective for self-representing artists to afford to exhibit their work.

To become an Art4Essex member we ask that you share our passion for art and our ethos.

Resident Essex artists can upload fifteen JPEG images of their work for free, whilst 'guest artists' can upload six images for free. Every artist is provided with a biography page attached to their online gallery. The Art4Essex website is currently run as a non profit organisation and artists are requested to provide their own contact details on their individual biography page for enquiries and sales.

Most memberships to Art4Essex are by invitation only, however, artists can submit images of their original painting, photography, sculpture or ceramic work for consideration along with a biography and contact details. Please contact the artist/webmaster Andrea Farmer through her gallery, sending a link to your website or by using the 'contact us' link below to discuss membership or any other enquiry about Art4Essex.
