About the Art House
|
The Art House is a not-for-profit ‘Community Interest Company’,
formed in 2008 by four like-minded ecocentrics with a passion for
art, community, and above all, cake.
History
The Art House was founded by it’s directors - Jani Franck, Nina Fraser, Ziggy Woodward and Paul
Bickmore.
Most of The Art House crew are volunteers, contributing a wide
variety of skills. There are around 80 volunteers and counting, most of
whom work several hours a week. If you think you may want to join
the crew, please ask about volunteering.
