Info about Arts West Side, our mission and how to get involved!

Through Bristol City Council's Community Asset Transfer Policy, we have taken re-developed 6 West Street, Old Market, to provide a hub for community and arts activities including:

  • affordable meeting and office space with reduced rates for local people and groups
  • a café with free wi-fi and low-cost Internet access
  • exhibition space for local artists

We aim to:

  • raise the profile and visibility of local community activities
  • provide more community and arts activities within the area
  • increase community cohesion and a sense of neighbourhood
  • increase volunteer and participatory opportunities
  • contribute to the ongoing regeneration of Old Market
