Founded in 2018, Bas-Arts-Index is Basildon’s first
interdisciplinary, artist-led directory/network. Our mission is to provide an
online space for Basildons creative individuals, groups and organisations,
born, living, working in or making work about the Basildon Borough. We hope to
connect local creatives which in turn will generate activity, collaboration and
to help support a cohesive local arts ecology. If you are interested in

Free group trips to neighbouring new towns to
