About The Art Haven Co-operative



Arthaven Gallery is a cooperative. At present the Co-op consists of three local professional artists, and a fourth member who facilitates financial arrangements and business expertise.

Our aim is to build and sustain a creative environment in the town of Crosshaven which promotes the sale of high quality visual art from local and emerging artists. Art Haven aims to act as a crucible where artists can be afforded the opportunity to exhibit their work in an artist- run, artist friendly environment. At its heart, Arthaven aspires to reflect best commercial gallery practise, whilst not inhibiting the encouragement of and development of artist creativity.

In addition, Arthaven intends to incorporate a cultural dimension in the pursuit of developing Crosshaven’s artistic identity. Its activities, such as musical nights, adult art classes, and cooperation with the local schools for talks and projects, seek to achieve artistic awareness and interest in the Arts within the community.

Get in touch so that we can include you on our mailing list and keep you informed about the various exhibitions and events in Arthaven.
