Supporting life through art

Fermynwoods Contemporary Art is an educational charity that supports life through art by commissioning innovative and meaningful ways for artists to engage with audiences, in public spaces across Northamptonshire and online.

Our Aims

1. To find innovative, collaborative and meaningful ways for visual and interdisciplinary artists to reach and engage with non-traditional arts audiences, including rural and disadvantaged communities

2. To enable artists and audiences to explore how they relate to and connect with their social and natural environments by making links between urban culture and the rural landscape

3. To enable audiences to explore commonality and difference through artistic experiences and new perspectives

4. To challenge and educate audiences to develop their confidence and skills, to develop well-being, to reach their potential and find their place in the world through creativity

5. To challenge and support artists to develop visual, interdisciplinary and site responsive artistic practice
