What Artists Are Saying…
Simply one of the best arts organisations to ever do it. Their commitment to representing marginalised artists and use of their platform to spread awareness of world issues shouldn’t go unnoticed. I am grateful to have collaborated with them over the years on some incredible projects. Big up Calum Hall who heads the organisation for giving us emerging artists a space to be seen, heard & championed!

I've been lucky enough to work with Calum and Creative Debuts over the past year on a piece of work, thats currently up in my hometown. Calum has been incredibly attentive with workload as a freelance artist and working to my scheduling. The time and thought given throughout the duration of that commission has really made me want to keep on working with CD and build more work around their vision. Its great to be recommended by them and promoted for many other works that they do, especially with the vast range of clients they are dealing with on a day to day. Definitely a great connection to have and get an immense amount of support in my practise and progression.

I've always admired the work Creative Debuts does to champion emerging artists, and have had the pleasure of working with them recently in exhibitions. I've also appreciated their efforts to connect me with exciting new opportunities that have helped me grow and expand my art practice. Beyond the professional support, the personal encouragement has helped fuel my creative journey too. The level of dedication to helping creatives is honestly unmatched. I look forward to seeing all they achieve in the future!

From activating commercial & residential spaces to curating special events, Creative Debuts has always pioneered an incredible roster of emerging artists. CD places its community at the forefront of its ethos, engaging everyone to be a part of its journey and spur on creativity. I’ve witnessed many of their projects firsthand, and Calum has always brought all of his heart and energy to the exciting brands and spaces CD works with. I couldn’t recommend them enough!

Creative Debuts has done so much for artists and companies over the years. The events they've organised that I have been part of have been nothing short of incredible, I've seen queues out of the door and around the corner for brand activations where every person visiting was having a special individualised experience. They use art to engage, to story tell and as a force for good. Impossible projects pulled off by ingenuity and dedication to craft. I've had interaction with CD for many years from mural painting to live art to design and they even hosted an art show for a collective I am part of. Incredible projects that genuinely support artists.

Creative Debuts is the best, I recommend it to anyone interested in contemporary art and artists, street art and everything related, commercial projects and installations, art curating... CD supports the creative community in the most honest and meaningful way possible, with a special focus on diversity and real inclusion.
