Company activities and impact

During the financial year, Chichester Creative Art Network CIC delivered a range of initiatives de-signed to support local creatives and strengthen the cultural life of Chichester. Our activities included monthly creative meet-ups, a summer exhibition programme at Siddlesham Me-morial Hall, organised the annual Sussex Portrait Awards, participation in the BEATZ Festival, and se-curing a December pop-up space in central Chichester for exhibitions and creative use. These initiatives provided visibility, affordable opportunities, and community connection for creatives while helping to activate underused spaces. Our overarching aim is to increase access to creative space, support the professional development of lo-cal creatives, and contribute to a more connected, vibrant and sustainable creative community in Chich-ester.

Consultation with stakeholders

Our key stakeholders include members of the local creative community, participating creatives, partner organisations, and individuals who contribute to the development of our programmes, who provide on-going informal guidance and feedback on the direction of our events, activities and fundraising efforts. Consultation takes place through frequent, informal discussions, both in person and online, where we review current initiatives, identify emerging needs within the creative community, and assess opportuni-ties for collaboration and improved support. We invite all to our monthly creatine meetups to under-stand where they are struggling and what we can collectively do to address the issues. In response to stakeholder feedback, the CIC has continued to prioritise accessible creative opportuni-ties, the activation of unused spaces, and the development of community-led initiatives to ensure our activities remain relevant and beneficial to local creatives.
