Looking back at the CAS x Avant Arte collaboration with Grayson Perry
One of the highlights from 2024 was our collaboration with Avant Arte and the renowned artist Grayson Perry. The exclusive sale of his unique silkscreen print 'Magical Thinking' raised over £200,000 in under 7 days.

The Artist's Table
The Artist's Table is a series of bespoke artist curated experiences that take place twice a year. These are hosted by the artist at their studio and often involve a specially created piece of performance, in conversation or similar unique opportunity to experience the artist's work in a private setting. The artists are invited to create a one-off immersive experience including dinner.
