About us...

ARTEL is an artist-led organisation that creates exhibition opportunities for professional visual artists based in and around West Sussex. With no permanent exhibition venue it presents work in a variety of formats and locations.

Artel is a non-profit making limited company with a constitution based on a democratic voting system. At the moment we have 25 members, who meet monthly. Every year directors are chosen from the members. The current directors are: Anne Beverton, Irina Brzeski, Tim Sandys-Renton and Helena Hines.

Artel's primary aims are to:

• foster a dynamic and forward looking artistic community;
• create opportunities for dialogue and the exchange of new artistic ideas through exhibitions, discussions and events;
• search for affordable studio space for Artel's members.
