This year’s Community Afternoons have been full of joy! We’ve delivered a varied programme of exciting arts and crafts activties to communities in East Brighton.

About Community Afternoons

From September 2022 to May 2023, we hosted sessions at ONCA Barge at Brighton Marina and Bristol Estate (BELTA) Community Room in Whitehawk, helping local communities to access creative activities – from book binding and making Easter bonnets to building pottery with our hands.

During the summer break the next phase of the project will be focusing on gathering information from local communities about ways to extend our reach even further and grow a free arts offer in East Brighton. Have you got an idea or perhaps feedback? Find out how to get in touch below.

For now, get a sense of what’s been happening by looking through photographs captured over the last 10 months.

We want to hear from you if your community group or space would like to collaborate in Autumn 2023! If you have a venue, group or idea that feels relevant then please email .

For now, we’d like to thank BELTA, our funders Awards For All, and most importantly all the wonderful people who have attended Community Afternoons for their support and participation.
