Form Art Festival – Falmouth

A new annual festival celebrating the visual and applied arts and crafts in Cornwall.

This county of Cornwall has long been a source of inspiration, refuge, and community. Both shaped by and simultaneously shaping the creatives who call it home. Artists and makers here are influenced by the rhythms of the landscape that surrounds us, inspired by both the raw dynamism and the gentle ebb and flow. We believe the art created in Cornwall is unparalleled and deserves to be celebrated by both familiar and new faces.

2022 marks the first year of a new annual festival which celebrates the visual arts heritage and vibrant creative culture of Falmouth. Form will offer a series of captivating events such as talks, workshops and exhibitions in venues across the town, including in a 3-day art fair at Princess Pavilion. Here you’ll be able to immerse yourself in the work of hugely talented Cornish artists and craftspeople ands purchase directly from these small creative enterprises.

Form is a not-for-profit organisation spearheaded by Vicki Glaister of Inspire Makers and Ann Morgan of Morgans. Already championing both established and emerging Cornish talent through their own independent galleries in Falmouth, they are also keen to provide a platform for people at all stages in their creative journey. This festival will introduce artists and makers to new audiences, support the growth of Falmouth’s creative culture, and offer opportunities to learn more about the visual arts.

Form is supported by Falmouth BID and is part of an exciting new group of creative and cultural festivals working together as “Falmouth Creates” set up during the Covid-19 pandemic to reflect the various elements of Falmouth’s vibrant cultural scene and community.
