Arthouse is an artist development programme for 18-25 year olds who have begun to develop a creative practice.

This 6-month skills development programme supports individuals living, learning, or working in Milton Keynes. The programme includes training designed to equip young artists with the skills to make and market their work, promote themselves as artists and collaborate with others.

Working alongside peers, the cohort will learn from industry experts, receive 1:1 mentoring support and create work in response to a live brief. The aim? To leave the programme feeling confident, informed and networked, and able to continue to independently grow the skills and self esteem to thrive in the creative industries.

Applications for 2024/25 are now closed but follow us on social media to hear when applications reopen.
