Report this?

Space2 would like to invite artists to share their unique perspective and passion for the local environment through artistic celebration of waterways, green spaces and human connections. We would like to increase general understanding of the local natural habitat by connecting waterways to migration and environmental exploitation, and by reflecting Leeds’ diverse communities' local stories/cultures as central to conversations about nature, climate, and collective action.

Do you live in Leeds and make art? Would you like to share your creations with others?

Space2 is looking for contributions to our upcoming exhibition responding to the theme of ‘Streams'.

Open to all visual artists in Leeds and Space2 participants.

You don’t have to be a professional artist – if you make art, we’d love to see it and exhibit it.

You are welcome to submit up to 3 pieces.

Our exhibition space can only accept the art that can be hung, so please make sure that your submissions are 2D.

We will try to include as much work as possible.

The creative team at Space2 will review all the submitted work and make decisions on the final exhibition.

We will look at the connection to the theme and where the artist is based.

Space2 is an arts and social change charity based in East Leeds.

Our building is part The Old Fire Station community hub.

We have an art workshop space where we run community art groups and have our exhibition space.

Throughout the year, we curate a range of exhibitions and events involving our participants and people from the local area.

We know that there are many people across Leeds who are brilliant creatives, and we want them to have a space to showcase their work locally.
