Welcome to the first professionally produced arts critical website in Britain, theartsdesk.com, a new space for reviews and features about all the arts from live to recorded. Attendance at live music, galleries, theatres and other arts events has never been higher, and even seems to be increasing, but print arts coverage is in decline. We want to reflect the health of the arts scene and the potential of the web with a new kind of coverage.

theartsdesk.com will bring you arts writing and visuals of highest quality with the speed and scope of the net to reach out widely and dig down deeply. We aim to satisfy a new range of taste and interests not possible in newspapers, more personal, more individual, to include everyone with an internet connection in enjoyment of the arts, however remote they may be. Our coverage will include international culture and major regional arts, as well as all that London can offer.

theartsdesk.com will deliver first-class overnight reviews, remarkable features, comment and interviews, arts book reviews, ticket offers and chances for reader networking, while using the web to enrich the way you read arts coverage. We hope you will enjoy exploring the site and become a regular visitor.
