Partnerships
Local Arts Spotlight considers collaborations that help readers understand visual art and creative practice without blurring the line between editorial work and promotion. Use the Contact page to describe the idea and any commercial relationship involved.
Relevant collaborations
We consider clearly scoped collaborations connected to art, making, exhibitions or public visual culture, including commissioned explanatory material and reader-facing projects. Proposals should state the intended audience, format, timing and who is involved.
Partner placements
Relevant partner placements may appear across the publication, including recurring placements in shared site areas. Every paid or otherwise partnered placement is labelled clearly; placement does not imply editorial endorsement, and labels are not removed to make material appear independent.
Editorial separation
Editorial coverage remains separate from partnership decisions. We do not promise favourable coverage, control over independent editorial conclusions or inclusion in an article as a condition of collaboration. Send proposals through the Contact page for consideration.
Art belongs in the conversation about place.
We look at how images, objects and creative choices shape the way a place feels and what its people notice.
