About Us

Ellis Art House Projects

Ellis Art House Projects is a dynamic collective of independent artists dedicated to fostering collaboration, creativity, and growth in the global art world. We are a group of passionate individuals working out of Ellis Art House, a space where artists come together to share ideas, push boundaries, and support one another in their studio practices. Our mission is to create an ecosystem that empowers artists to thrive and succeed by providing opportunities that enhance their visibility, growth, and impact.

We believe in the power of collective effort. By working together, we aim to unlock new possibilities for artistic exploration, innovation, and exhibition. Our collective seeks to curate exhibitions, collaborate on projects, and create spaces that foster dialogue and creative exchange. We are committed to supporting emerging talent by opening a residency program for young and up-and-coming artists, giving them the opportunity to grow, develop, and connect with a broader network.

Ellis Art House Projects is also focused on the creation of multi-dimensional platforms that amplify the voices of artists. We aim to publish artist catalogues, produce podcasts, and share stories that celebrate artistic practice and creativity. By building a collaborative and supportive environment, we envision a future where our collective efforts help to bridge the gap between artists and the global art community.

Through our shared vision, we hope to provide artists with the tools, resources, and opportunities to succeed in the ever-evolving art world. Together, we strive to build an inclusive and sustainable future for art and culture.

Ellis Art House Projects Benefit Auction

The Benefit Auction is a key event that coincides with the launch week of Ellis Art House Projects. This auction will raise essential funds to support the artists within our collective and assist in the start-up of our initiative. The proceeds will directly contribute to creating opportunities for artists, including funding exhibitions, residencies, and studio programs.

In 2025, Ellis Art House Projects will kick off a series of continuous programs, focusing on collaboration and community building. We aim to partner with other artist spaces, schools, and art enthusiasts to create a network of shared resources and opportunities. By fostering these connections, we hope to enrich the art ecosystem and provide emerging and established artists with the support they need to thrive. The Benefit Auction is a vital step in bringing this vision to life, and we invite everyone to be part of this exciting journey.
