Who Are We
The Great Northern Art Challenge is run by a dedicated small group of artists who are passionate about bringing visual arts to rural areas in the North of England.
We strongly believe that art can bring people together physically through art events and culturally through it’s capacity to tell a community’s shared story, to inspire reflection and form connections.
We rely entirely on donations and sponsorship for funding and is a non-profit making project.
If you are interested in being involved, either as a volunteer or sponsor, please get in touch.
