Collaborate with Visual Artists Association

Strengthening Artist Communities Through Professional Development

We champion the professional growth of visual artists through expert-led training, mentorship, and industry-focused resources. Our mission is to help artists not only sustain their creative practice but thrive as professionals in the art world.

We are now inviting artist collectives, networks, open studios, galleries, and creative organisations to collaborate with us in delivering tailored online professional development sessions for your community. These sessions are built around our Artist’s Guide to Success framework and offer practical, actionable insights to support artists in developing long-term, sustainable careers.

We’ve already partnered with respected artist-focused organisations—including Artists Futures Fund, the Royal Scottish Academy, Bradford City of Culture (Bradford Producing Hub), Devon Open Studios, and the Institute of Contemporary Art of Ouro Preto, to name a few—and we’d be delighted to explore how we can support your group in a similar way. Our speakers and advisors are established professionals in the art industry—curators, consultants, and practitioners with deep sector knowledge. You can view them here, and see a full list of our institutional and commercial partners here.

To start the conversation, simply complete the form below. A member of our team will be in touch to arrange an introductory call and tailor a session that brings real value to your group.

Let’s work together to empower your artists and enhance their professional journey.
