Here are the incredible facilitators that will be supporting Hive, with sessions throughout the day.

We’re thrilled to bring you the programme for Hive, our upcoming conference which investigates how artist-led spaces can build a sustainable cultural ecology. 

We’re delighted that a whole host of our brilliant East Street Arts studio holders and staff have been selected to exhibit in the Leeds Artists Show, at Leeds Art Gallery, which is open until 30 April so there are still a few weeks left to see it! Here’s a quick introduction to them and their practices. 

This Easter, we're flooding New Briggate with art in unusual places, that you can take home for free! Inspired by stories of the iconic street, the artworks can be found on anything from pizza boxes to reusable cups. Can you collect them all?

NOW CLOSED. Are you an artist with connections to Carnival and Caribbean culture? Do you want to celebrate the heritage Leeds West Indian Carnival? Are you passionate about public art? Apply now!

East Street Arts, as part of the ongoing ‘A City Less Grey’ project, is working in partnership with Leeds West Indian Carnival and Leeds City Council to commission a public art mural that preserves the history and richness of Leeds West Indian Carnival and represents the local community that resides in Chapeltown.

We’re checking in at the Art Hostel, highlighting how incredible the rooms and spaces are. Next, we’ve got room two - Alison Smith’s incredibly fun and playful Ziggy Wingle.

We’re excited to unveil a fantastic new mural on the intersection of Mabgate and Argyle Road, in collaboration with Portuguese artist Add Fuel, celebrating Leeds’ important ceramics heritage.

We're really excited to be taking part in a UK-Taiwan artist exchange with artists Jui-Hung Ni and Sayang, in partnership with Platform Asia and Taipei Artist Village as part of Leeds 2023.

We’re checking in at the Art Hostel, highlighting how incredible the rooms and spaces are. First up, we’re looking at room one - Rooting by Sayang.
