Purbeck Art Weeks is dedicated to promoting and expanding both visual and performing arts in Purbeck, fostering a vibrant environment where creativity flourishes and communities connect. Our mission is to enrich the lives of local people and enhance well-being through diverse experiences.
Our flagship annual Festival showcases a diverse range of talent, featuring open studios, exhibitions, concerts, performances, and talks that bring together local creatives, international talent, and the wider community.
Beyond, and during the Festival, we run a vibrant events programme, offering unique opportunities to experience world-class music and creative collaborations in Purbeck.
We are passionate about supporting the next generation. Through our bursaries and Purbeck Young Artists (PYA) programme, we work with local schools to provide young people with the tools, skills, and encouragement to explore their creativity. Find out more here.
At the heart of everything we do is a commitment to community. Our projects bring people together to create, learn, and share, making the arts accessible to everyone and fostering a sense of connection and belonging.
