Artyface was founded by Maud Milton in 1999 to provide high quality, legacy public art. Community involvement is integral to our projects: we estimate we work with 4000 + people per year, bringing people of all ages and abilities together to create art that can be enjoyed for generations to come.

‘The mosaics, created as part of the wider Railway Approach improvements, are a brilliant community art project and are an asset to the local area. Maud was able to reach over 250 members of the community through a community art workshop and school visits which resulted in four wonderful roundels that celebrate Worthing. It was great to have the input of local artist Alice too, also working with local secondary pupils. We continue to receive lots of brilliant feedback from the community who both participated and who have seen them in Worthing!’

‘Of all the local community efforts I have participated in, pressing clay tiles in 2020, 2021 and 2022 for the mosaic roundels at Thornton Heath and Selhurst railway stations and entrance to Kindred House has been the most enjoyable. Each artwork helped bring together members of local neighbourhoods comprising diverse ethnicities and age ranges. Whilst we used old jewellery and a clutch of every day kitchen and office drawer essentials to create designs, none of us imagined that nondescript beige clay tiles could be transformed into beautiful works of art in stunning colours. They stand testimony to shared local community endeavours and new friendships forged as a result.’
