Collector Plan

Collectorplan is an interest free loan scheme run by the Arts Council of Wales in association with the Principality Building Society for the purchase of artworks in galleries across Wales.

It is a simple way to buy original art from £50 to £2000 through the Arts Council over a number of months. A deposit of 10% must be made then the buyer can decide how quickly to repay – the maximum is 15 months.

To set up the loan a form with your bank details is completed and sent to Arts Council of Wales. Once approved a direct debit is set up and the painting can be released to the buyer.

For more details please contact the gallery on 029 20712100.
