Supporters
Our campaign is powered by our supporters – members of the public who care about the arts and everybody’s access to them.
Our alliance spans every constituency in the UK. Together, we take action on the issues and champion the benefits of the arts in society.
Our team
Affiliate Photographer Network
Helping us celebrate the richness, diversity and everyday reality of the arts across the UK.
No single organisation, venue or artist sees the whole picture of the arts in the UK. But freelance photographers are a kind of hidden seam in the arts scene: moving between places, projects and people, stitching the sector together through their lens.
Our Affiliate Photographer Network brings together active freelance photographers who are already out there documenting arts and cultural activity as part of their working lives. With their clients’ agreement, they share selected images with the Campaign for the Arts, helping us illustrate, celebrate and report on the breadth of the arts across the UK and the people who make it happen.
Our pilot network launched in late summer 2026 with five photographers. We hope to expand it in future, bringing more photographers and more of the UK’s arts and cultural life into the picture. Meet our Affiliate Photographers:
