Epsom's artistic community

Campus foyer, UCA Epsom

Epsom has an active artistic community enhanced by work and activities organised by Surrey County Council, the Epsom Contemporary Artist Network (ECAN), Surrey Artists and Lintons Youth Art Centre.

ECAN members meet regularly to arrange various exhibitions and activities to promote local talent and the art scene. Surrey Artists hold an Open Studio event each year with council-run events such as Celebrating Surrey and Youth Leisure Day with art-themed activities. The local youth service has a strong art presence in Epsom and works hard to promote new talent. They currently run a gallery in Epsom town centre to exhibit work by students and regularly arrange focal points around the town to display work.

UCA Epsom adds to the local displays and creates a talking point by showcasing student work in the reception area.
