seas -socially engaged art salon
About SEAS SEAS (Socially Engaged Art Salon) is an award winning artists' led
organization that promotes socially engaged art practices and artists from
underrepresented sectors and works with marginalized communities through
exhibitions, workshops, and cultural events. It also offers an artists’ support
programme and residencies. SEAS' programme takes place at Black and Minorities
Ethnic Community Partnership (BMECP) Centre, The Ledward Centre (TLC) the up and
coming Brighton's LTBTQAI+ centre, and at the Jubilee Library. SEAS is the South
East hub of the Social Art Network (SAN) and we often collaborate with invited
curators, art institutes, charities and community organisations. Founded by Dr
Gil Mualem-Doron in 2016, and supported by Art Council England and Brighton&Hove
City Council, SEAS is a beacon for socially and politically engaged art in
Brighton and south-East England. SEAS is the South-East hub for the Social Art
Network (UK) and it has collaborated with organisations such as Platforma
Arts+Refugees, Sanctuary on Sea, Brighton Museum, Brighton Pride, Brighton Photo
Fringe, Photoworks, Blast Theory, Esmée Fairbairn, and the Coram Foundation.
Since 2018 SEAS has been supported by the Art Council England and Brighton &
Hove Council.
