Oxford Creatives was established by local artist and writer Zoe Evelyn. The idea was simple: to create an easy and effective way for creative people in Oxford to connect and collaborate.

What could be easier than an email group? No private Facebook group that disappears from your feed, and no obscure Instagram page that people forget to check. Oxford Creatives is designed to be a straightforward, accessible way for local creatives to stay up to date with events, exhibitions, opportunities, collaborations, and conversations happening across the Oxford area.

Whether you’re looking to share your work, find collaborators, ask for advice, solve creative problems, or simply feel more connected to other creative people, the group is here to make those connections easier.

The group was launched in the summer of 2026 and is still in its early stages. The larger and more diverse the community becomes, the more useful, inspiring, and stimulating it will be for everyone involved. If you find the group valuable, please consider recommending it to a friend or two.

Looking forward to connecting with you.
