CVAF offers the opportunity for all those working in the arts in Cornwall, including professional artists, curators, commissioners, Higher Education representatives, students, gallerists, gallery educators, writers/critics and promoters/marketers, to exchange ideas and engage in debate and discussion around the current issues in contemporary visual arts - locally, regionally, nationally and internationally.

Cornwall Visual Arts Forum Advisory Group

Something that makes the Cornwall Visual Arts Forum (CVAF) a distinctive and relevant forum for those working professionally in the contemporary visual arts in Cornwall, is the way in which Creative Skills ensures that it involves practitioners, galleries and Higher Education establishment representatives in helping to design and plan the CVAF events.
