At Art Swansea our goal is to promote and encourage people to get arty. We are, however, a small team of volunteers with limited time and resources. From the start we wanted to provide people with the opportunity to enjoy art at no cost to them, so we put on the free sessions on a Friday evening that include art materials to use for those not in a position to supply their own.
We’re asking for your help in ensuring that Art Swansea meets the needs of the people of Swansea.
Like and share on Social Media
If you can like and share our social media posts that would be an amazing help. It costs nothing and takes seconds. If you can follow our accounts on social media too then that helps raise our visibility. We’re on Facebook, Instagram, and TikTok only. The more visibility we have on social media increases the opportunities for us to partner with other organisations and increase our ability to provide free services for other people to enjoy.
Share our flyers
We have a flyer that can be downloaded and printed out if you know of somewhere that you can put them. If you click on the image it’ll take you to the PDF file that can be downloaded and printed out or shared.
Get Involved
We’re looking for someone to help us with social media. It would be on a volunteer basis (same as the rest of us), and suit either someone who is as passionate about this project as we are, or someone who’s looking to expand their portfolio for digital marketing. With everything else that goes on in the background of running Art Swansea we don’t have a great deal of time to plan and implement social media campaigns. We’re looking for someone who’ll be able to organise consistent social media content to promote Art Swansea in a relatable way (without using AI at any point). If that could be you then email contact@artswansea.com to arrange a chat.
Become a Patron
There are costs involved with running Art Swansea. Except for a small grant from Swansea Council for Volunteer Services (SCVS) for which we are very grateful, everything else is funded personally. We have ideas for making Art Swansea self funding, but we need people attending before that becomes a reality. In the mean time we’re personally funding the day to day running and the free sessions that we put on every week.
A donation of just £5 will help fund one free Friday evening session. We’d be very grateful for any donations, and we’re looking at creating a ‘zine that would be sent out to patrons as a thank you for their support.
You can donate £5 by clicking this link:

A donation of £10 will fully fund one free Friday evening session.

If you’d like to become a regular patron for just £5 a month then click the button below. This would be a £5 payment and then £5 each following month until you cancel the subscription. We are going to be looking in to providing rewards to those who support us.
Everyone at Art Swansea is incredibly grateful for any help that you can give. Just getting the word out there is a massive help to us. Without you, there is no Art Swansea.
