Profits will be split between Salon for the benefit of the deaf and hard-of-hearing community and the artists who created the original works, except in cases where the artist has agreed for all profits to be reinvested in Salon.
Salon is taking a break this month to allow for new family commitments. For this reason, we will not be undertaking or announcing any plans until further notice.
Unsolicited emails or post sent to Salon will also not be accepted or acknowledged during this time in order to minimise unnecessary disruption. If you need to get in touch with the Director for personal or non-Salon-related reasons, please use alternative contact means. Thanks!
At long last! Subtitled YouTube clips of our last workshop at Modern Art Oxford, 'What does Deaf Art mean to you?' are available for viewing in two parts. Enjoy watching.
Welcome to the new website for Salon, the UK's only deaf visual arts development agency committed to supporting deaf and hard-of-hearing visual artists and aspiring artists.
For a summary, watch our showreel below:
Salon does more than just exhibit contemporary visual art by deaf people! What we do is professional development: giving deaf and hard-of-hearing people the opportunity, time and space to build new ideas, new skills, new confidence through
collaborative activity e.g. art retreats
deaf-led artist workshops
schools outreach work
practical skills training
Through working together, participants learn how to market themselves better, create more meaningful pieces of deaf contemporary visual art, and fund-raise for their own projects.
We work to boost the mainstream profile of deaf and hard-of-hearing visual artists through mutual partnerships with leading visual arts organisations across London and the South-East, including Tate, Modern Art Oxford, Stour Valley Arts and OVADA.
We often arrange preparatory Deaf Arts Equality Training for our partners, which not only enables them to practise a vital and innovative model of Deaf and Disability Equality practice in the arts, but also leands them a unique insight into Deaf Art and Culture and the rich contribution it can make to society as a whole.

Our vision: to empower deaf and hard-of-hearing visual artists and young people to take the lead in the contemporary visual arts.
We do this through innovative activities that enable them to explore their cultural deaf and hard-of-hearing experiences through conceptual art ideology.
We film our activities and have in the past published an in-house quarterly, The Lounge, aiming to increase the profile of Deaf visual art nationwide and trigger dialogue within a broader arts and social entrepreneurial context.
