CREATIVE
EASTBOURNE

welcome

Creative Eastbourne is a grassroots network shaped by the people who take part. We bring together artists, makers and creative thinkers to connect, collaborate and share what they’re working on. Through open planning meetings, creative takeovers, exhibitions, workshops and informal meet ups, we create spaces where ideas can grow and people can get involved in ways that feel right for them.

You can get involved through our planning meetings, projects, creative meet ups and events. We also stay connected through our WhatsApp group and on Instagram, where opportunities, updates and ideas are shared day to day.

our aims

Our aim is to work in ways that feel inclusive, collaborative and transparent, while helping to grow creative opportunities across the town. We are passionate about supporting local venues and community spaces, and about giving greater visibility to the many talented creatives already based in Eastbourne and the wider area.
