Working Class Creatives (WCC) is an arts organisation and community confronting class-based barriers within the creative industries.

Founded in 2021, we have grown into a UK-wide network of over 2,000 working-class creatives. We create spaces for conversation, connection, collective organising and the sharing of opportunities, skills and knowledge.

SUPPORT WORKING CLASS CREATIVES (1).png

'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.
