Solihull Artists Forum (SAF) is a dynamic organisation of professional visual and contemporary craft based artists who work to raise the profile of arts in the Solihull area.

 

Initially set up in 2001 to consult and work with Solihull MBC when the Borough was engaged in establishing an Arts strategy. SAF provides both networking and professional development opportunities with a support framework for artists and craftspeople who earn all or part of their income within the creative industry. It seeks to improve exhibition and business oportunities for its members.

SAF also benefits from the support offered by Solihull Council's Arts team through regular meetings at the Arts Complex and the provision of exhibition oportunities in the main gallery along with the circulation of regular information about opportunities for local artists.
