CVAN England leads a collective agenda for policy change across the visual arts. We campaign to be heard, valued, and recognised so that the sector can thrive now and in the future.
I want to...
CVAN is where arts workers come together to drive change in our sector. We are a visual arts network with nine interconnected regions. CVAN England, the national hub, leads the collective agenda. We use our deeply rooted regionality to advocate and campaign nationally to build recognition for the value of visual arts.
We strive to close the gap between the realities that our sector faces and the rationale of decision-makers, so that no changes are made in isolation. We bring together visual artists and arts workers to ensure a combined, evidenced voice is heard, valued and recognised in order that our sector can thrive.
We are proud of our regionality. We all have a part to play. Find out what’s going on in your regional network.
