Welcome to Phoenix Art Space
A Home for Artists, Ideas, and Communities
For over 30 years, Phoenix Art Space has been a vital part of Brighton and Hove’s cultural life. Established through the artist-led movement of the 1990s, we have grown into one of the region’s largest studio providers and a dynamic centre for contemporary art, creativity and community.
Home to more than 100 studio artists, alongside public exhibitions, events and learning, Phoenix brings 20,000 people together each year through creativity and new ideas. Here, you can discover new perspectives, connect through art and help shape a more inclusive and inspiring future.
Alongside our exhibition programme, we put on a range of regular community events which are open to everyone. These include:
- talks and presentations from artists & arts organisations
- family fun days
- short courses, one-day events & drop-in workshops.
“Coming here, it’s given me purpose. It gives me a reason to get up in the morning.”
