Solo Arts

Solo Arts was based in #Sunderland, UK. We used to support grass-roots & emerging artists through creative get-togethers, arts markets, & pop-up exhibitions.

Happy Monday folks!

We're looking for some feedback from Sunderland-based artists who are struggling at the minute.

We're working on something in the background, but need to know - what would help you out most right now?

If it isn't on the list, pop it in the comments!

I think the plinth in Bristol should be a reoccurring art commission for BAME artists to take it over for a few months, like the Trafalgar square one. @ace_national start commissioning!
