Celebrating 20 years of Own Art with Sunny Bank Mills
For Own Art’s 20th anniversary, we visited Own Art member gallery Sunny Bank Mills in Farsley to highlight stories from those who’ve benefitted from the scheme.
Watch the video below to discover how we’re supporting artists’ livelihoods, enriching the creative community, and promoting the positive impact of art on mental well-being. This video was produced in partnership with our friend and finance provider, Novuna Consumer Finance.

Own Art is a publicly funded UK-wide initiative that makes buying contemporary art and craft affordable by providing interest-free credit for the purchase of original work. Own Art reduces the financial barriers and perceptions of elitism that commonly exist within the art market, by making it easier and more affordable for people to purchase and enjoy original art and craft, regardless of their income and socio-economic background.
Own Art is operated by Creative United and supported by the Arts Council of England, Arts Council of Northern Ireland, Creative Scotland and the Arts Council of Wales.
Special thanks to our partner Novuna Consumer Finance, whose support makes our mission possible.
