Broad Canvas venue information

Broad Canvas was founded in 1981 by a local family and plays an important part in the creative hub in Oxford and the surrounding area. Situated in the heart of Oxford City Centre and sitting opposite Oxford University's Balliol College in Broad Street, this art and craft shop is unique and full of character. Loved by local artists, students from Oxford University, Oxford Brookes University and the many local schools, Broad Canvas has something for everyone.

Spread over three floors, Oxfordshire's No 1 Art and Craft shop caters for many crafts, hobbies and creative professions. We stock a wide range of specialist materials for the artist and craftsperson, hobbyist and beginner or student. Broad Canvas is known as a treasure trove to its' customers as we have products displayed and tucked into every and any available space. Paint brushes, canvas, fine art paint, craft paints, inks, palettes, pencils and pens, gift sets and starter sets, papers, sketchbooks, clay, beads and sequins, scissors and glue, needlework threads and tapestry needles, we have the lot!
However, if there is something specific that you are searching for that we don't appear to have on our website or in our shop in Oxford, please do make an enquiry with us. We would be very happy to source specialist items fo you, whenever possible.

The Little Gallery and Broad Canvas Window Gallery
Our interests do not solely in supplying art and craft materials. At Broad Canvas we are very keen to support our customers and local Oxford Artists. On the first floor of the shop we have The Little Gallery. In the Little Gallery we hold regular exhibitions showcasing the work of budding artists and professional artists and craftspeople. We invite local art groups such as the Oxford Printmakers, Abingdon Art Group, Oxford Art Society, the East Oxford Drawing Collective and our members of staff to put on exhibitions with a view to sell their work and help raise awareness of their skills and talent. We also have the Broad Canvas Window Gallery which shows off one piece of work for one week at a time. As this gallery faces onto Broad Street, in the centre of Oxford, the work is seen by many people and is an exciting addition to the shop.
If you are interested in displaying your work in The Little Gallery or the Broad Canvas Window Gallery, please contact us. You can email us at: thegallery@broadcanvas.net for further information about the exhibition possibilities.
