Own Art is Arts Council England’s interest free loan scheme designed to make it easy and affordable for everyone to buy contemporary works of art and craft by living artists.

You can borrow up to £2,000, or as little as £100, and pay back the loan in 10 monthly instalments – completely interest free.

The scheme will be available through selected Own Art member galleries at Buy Art Fair this year, and you will also find it in over 250 galleries across England and Scotland. To find a gallery near you please visit www.ownart.org.uk

To be eligible to apply for an Own Art loan you need to be:
• over 18 years old
• a permanent UK resident
• in possession of a bank or building society account that can operate direct debit payments

You’ll also need to have two forms of identification with you – one for proof of signature, such as a debit or credit card, and the other for proof of address. This could be a driving licence or bank statement, for example.

Arts Council England aims to put the arts at the heart of national life. Own Art helps us to do this by making it possible for people to live with art they love. Using the scheme also helps support artists and galleries who sell high quality contemporary art.
