How it works for Galleries

Amici brings together galleries from different parts of the world, encouraging them to collaborate, share resources, and expand their reach. Through shared exhibitions hosted online and promoted via Amici.Art, galleries can connect with a global audience, enabling clients to browse and purchase artworks directly.

No Sign-up Fees
Galleries only pay a £50 administration fee once a Host and Visitor gallery are successfully paired.

Shared Risk and Profit
Operating costs and profits are shared between Host and Visiting galleries, with Amici taking a 5% commission from each gallery on sales made through the platform only.

Benefits for All Participants

Host Gallery: Reduce operating costs, diversify programming, and gain access to new, international audiences.
Visiting Gallery: Showcase your artists globally while leveraging the infrastructure of local galleries, avoiding the hectic, costly art fair experience.

Inclusivity and Fair Practice
Amici is committed to promoting diversity and inclusivity, with all galleries adhering to our Code of Conduct.

About Amici Studio

Amici Studio is a multi-use creative space based in Hastings, East Sussex. Opening in January 2026 at 12 Claremont, next to Hastings Library, the Studio delivers a public programme of exhibitions, events and learning activity for artists, creative practitioners and local communities across Hastings, St Leonards and the wider East Sussex coast.

Exhibitions

The programme is structured around six two-month blocks across the year, each anchored by a core exhibition. These exhibitions form the backbone of Amici Studio’s activity and are accompanied by a wider layer of public-facing events, discussions and artist-led activity.

Events and Public Programme

Alongside exhibitions, Amici Studio hosts talks, performances, Salon Dinners and a monthly talks programme launching in spring 2026. These events create opportunities for conversation, exchange and shared experience around contemporary practice.

Artist Development

Amici Studio supports artist development through mentoring, portfolio conversations and practical workshops. These activities are designed to reduce barriers to participation, particularly for young people, early-career practitioners, disabled people and carers, and those facing financial or social obstacles to accessing arts and culture.

In Progress

When needed, the studio will host short-term artist In Progress occupations, offering space for live making, experimentation and exchange. These projects are process-led and provide opportunities for artists and audiences to engage with work in development.

Community and Collaboration

Amici Studio works closely with local partners and organisations, including Project Art Works, who are based in the same building. Collaboration and shared activity are central to the Studio’s approach, supporting connections across practices and communities.
