Over the past few years our team have traveled extensively in order to build an understanding of regional exhibition venues, activity to gain an understanding of the current state of the visual arts in Britain. Artist-led activity is undervalued in terms of public funding, and private investment although the recent ‘Tastebuds’ research commissioned by Arts Council England underlined the way in which it underpins later commercial successes.

In 2007 Matt Roberts Arts was awarded a NAN: Go and See bursary to strengthen our links with groups in the North of England. The NAN scheme supported by A-N: The artists information company provides a much needed service to artist-led organisations, aiding in the creation of a sustainable network of support, for artist-led activity.
