Wysing Arts Centre is a contemporary arts residency centre and campus for artistic production, experimentation and learning in South Cambridgeshire, England. The centre was established in 1989[1] and completed a £1.7 million capital development project in 2008.[2] Across the eleven-acre site the centre holds ten buildings, including 24 low-cost artists' studios, a live-work space, specialist new media facilities, a large gallery, education facilities, a recording studio,[1] a ceramics studio[3] and a 17th-century grade II listed farmhouse which is used as accommodation for residencies and retreats.[4] The main focus of the centre's activities is the international residency programme, but it also hosts temporary exhibitions, retreats, a programme for young artists, semi-permanent sculptural and architectural commissions and works on offsite projects with many other institutions nationally and internationally.[5] It is a registered charity under English law.[6]

In 2010 Wysing was invited to join Plus Tate; one of only two of the twenty organisations in the network whose work is focused on process and production rather than on the presentation of extant works.[7] Alongside Plus Tate, Wysing has a number of partnerships in place with organisations including the Royal College of Art, the Royal Society of Arts, the British Council, the Contemporary Art Society, Anglia Ruskin University, Cambridge University and the Contemporary Visual Arts Network.[8]

History

Wysing was created in 1989 by founders Jenny and Terry Brooks and artists Annie and Age Bunnetat.

The group had a vision of an organisation which would provide space, time, funding and a creative environment to support visual arts practice without pre-defined outcomes. They found a suitable site at a former dairy farm in Cambridgeshire, restored its 17th-century farmhouse, and transformed old farm buildings into studios and a gallery space.[1][2]
