Bedford Creative Arts is a contemporary arts charity dedicated to commissioning high-quality art with communities and working with artists to explore new developments in socially engaged art practice. Our work is focused outside the gallery space in social spaces and in schools in Bedford and Bedfordshire. See our Projects page to find out more.

We also produce The Culture Challenge programme for schools and cultural providers, and are an Arts Award Supporter. Additionally, we manage five artist studios from our building in the centre of Bedford town.
