FORM Art Festival

This county of Cornwall has long been a source of inspiration, refuge, and community. Both shaped by and simultaneously shaping the creatives who call it home. Artists and makers here are influenced by the rhythms of the landscape that surrounds us, inspired by both the raw dynamism and the gentle ebb and flow. We believe the art created in Cornwall is unparalleled and deserves to be celebrated by both familiar and new faces.

2026 sees the fourth year of our annual festival which celebrates the visual arts heritage and vibrant creative culture of Falmouth. FORM offers a series of captivating events such as talks, workshops and exhibitions in venues across the town, including in a 3-day art fair at Princess Pavilion. Here you’ll be able to immerse yourself in the work of hugely talented Cornish artists and craftspeople ands purchase directly from these small creative enterprises.

FORM is a not-for-profit organisation spearheaded by Vicki Glaister of Inspire Makers and Ann Morgan of Morgans. Already championing both established and emerging Cornish talent through their own independent galleries in Falmouth, they are also keen to provide a platform for people at all stages in their creative journey. This festival introduces artists and makers to new audiences, supports the growth of Falmouth’s creative culture, and offers opportunities to learn more about the visual arts.
