Black Swan Arts is looking forward to celebrating its 40th anniversary in 2026 and has an exciting programme of exhibitions and events planned for its special year.

But we’ve been hit with a huge jump in our energy bills and all our maintenance costs which threaten the existence of the centre and is likely to force us to close the doors. That means there will be no more free exhibitions, no community events, no support for young people or vulnerable members of the community and no employment or volunteering opportunities.

So, we need your help. We’ve set up a Just Giving crowd-funding page and ask you to make a donation, however small or large to help ensure that 2026 is the best year ever for Black Swan Arts. We promise that 100% of every donation will be used to keep the doors open.

Thanks for your support.
