Elysium Artspace
A volunteer-run artists' space situated in the rundown high street of Swansea city centre.
Elysium is a volunteer-run artists' space situated in the rundown high street of Swansea city centre. Opened in September 2007, the gallery is committed to exhibiting and promoting the work of emerging artists from diverse disciplines. Elysium fills a cultural gap in Swansea, which now has a base for artists to promote freedom of expression, experimentation and critical appreciation. There are two exhibition spaces: the basement for experimental studio and film projects, and the main gallery space on the ground floor. Elysium accepts proposals for exhibitions, one-off events, film, music, performance, installation – and all ideas! Elysium Artspace is a non-profit organisation, sponsored by nobody and therefore answerable to nobody.
