QuAC Studio- Help us grow to support artists

Aim

QuAC is an inclusive and supportive creative hub, bringing people together from all over Manchester and Salford

As an artist and teacher based in Manchester, I found that having a space to collaborate and create with other people, or even on my own work, was becoming more and more expensive and restrictive. I know that this is something that can be fixed.

Using my passion for creating as well as teaching, supporting and inspiring the wider community of creators, I have developed the Queer Artist Collective, lovingly known as QuAC.

QuAC is a versatile studio space that I have created that helps artists and creative people collaborate, create and learn, in a supportive and welcoming environment.

There are two events that run every few months, where we showcase what the community has created, a gallery for the art created where people are invited to promote and sell their art, as well as a market and evening cabaret for performances. 

As a new venture, we are looking for funds to fully establish the space to support the community of creatives.
