East Street Arts (ESA) is a contemporary arts organisation in Leeds. Our mission is to focus on the development of artists through our events programme, professional development and studio/facility provision.

We take a holistic approach to working with artists on a professional level to empower them to realise their potential. ESA operates three sites: Patrick Studios (ESA headquarters), Beaver and Barkston Studios and we also run a range of offsite projects.

On a regular basis, ESA invites you to get involved in our activities including artists’ talks, special events, cultural trips and exchanges, debates and publications by:

• coming along to our events

• joining our membership for increased access to ESA resources, facilities and special events

sending in proposals for event and exhibiting opportunities

For documentation of some of the special events during Multitude go to our Flickr site at www.flickr.com/photos/east-street-arts or go to our Multitude blog to add your opinions on Multitude, read participants' reviews and view artist's especially commissioned texts on their thoughts on collecting.
