Our Creative Community
Our Creative Community is a social enterprise in Bristol, committed to providing affordable and funded classes in architecture and art to students of all ages and abilities.
Our mission is to make creative classes accessible by recognising the barriers of entry and progression that still make art and architecture in the UK feel noninclusive. Whether you're a hobbyist or are looking to develop skills to enter the industry, we want to support your journey.
