Compass Live Art Limited

Compass commissions and presents interactive live art projects in Leeds, UK. We run an artist residency programme, present standalone projects and exhibitions and artist development initiatives. Compass is also the driving force behind the biennial Compass Festival. We believe that everyone can enjoy the very best of contemporary live art and we work closely with partners around the city and beyond to present thought provoking, entertaining and moving projects in a range of settings including libraries, markets, museums, shopping centres and the city streets. We take time to work with artists and communities making sure the projects we commission are considered and fully engaged with their surroundings. We create our programmes carefully through a range of artist residencies, open calls for proposals and invited commissions.
