Working Class Creatives is an arts organisation that confronts class based issues within creative industries. We facilitate a space that puts working-class creatives at the forefront; A space for conversation, connections, and sharing of opportunities, skills, and knowledge.
 
We envision a creative industry where working-class voices are equally represented, valued, and influential. Our goal is to eliminate barriers of class, ensuring that all creatives regardless of their background, have the opportunity to thrive, innovate and contribute meaningfully to the arts.

WORKING CLASS PROJECTS 

We support working-class creatives with community, resources and professional development. Partnering with UK organisations, we provide exhibitions, residencies, and talks to amplify their voices. Our initiatives foster opportunities in the arts and promote class inclusivity. 

WORKING CLASS COMMUNITY

A community of 1,000+ working-class creatives across the UK, built on connection, support, and shared opportunity. Members get a profile on our database; access events, residencies, and resources; and use our tools and spaces to self-organise, collaborate, and share skills, ideas, and knowledge.

OUR AIMS

SHOP

Here you’ll find our curated Editions; limited edition prints from our talented working-class creative members, and exclusive merch that helps support our mission. All proceeds go back into our Community, helping us sustain and grow our work.

Our Editions model ensures 50% goes directly to the artist, 25% supports WCCD, and 25% is donated to a community cause of the artist’s choice; a cycle of creativity that feeds back into the communities that shaped it.

'Working Class Creatives' responds to a need which is too often overlooked in the arts; that of the barriers facing working-class artists from getting on in our sector. They are instrumental in initiating much-needed change that will see the art world become more inclusive and reflect the society it purports to serve. I often search their database in my research, it is a vital resource for any arts professional working in culture today. That they have got this far on so little financial resource is remarkable and I am excited to see what they will achieve with further support.” Beth Hughes, Curator, Arts Council Collection.
