We are looking for an array of artists, groups and initiatives to host creative events as part of the Bexhill Art Weekender on the 15th and 16th August 2026.

Bexhill Art Weekender is a town-wide celebration of contemporary art, culture and creativity embedded within the civic life of Bexhill-on-Sea.

The 2026 programme will:

Champion participation, pride and place
Platform artists at all stages of their careers
Support grassroots and emerging initiatives
Encourage intergenerational exchange
Celebrate Bexhill’s distinctive cultural ecology
Contribute to the long-term ambitions of the town, including the UK Town of Culture 2028 bid

We aim to build a programme that is ambitious, generous and welcoming — reflecting the full breadth of Bexhill’s communities.
