The Arts Desk

The Arts Desk (theartsdesk.com) is a British arts journalism website containing reviews, interviews, news, and other content related to music, theatre, television, films, and other art forms written by journalists from a variety of traditional and web-based publications.

It launched in September 2009 as a shareholder collective. In its launching year, it drew around 2000 daily visitors. From 2010 to 2013, its honorary chairman was John Tusa. Its contributing editors are made up by professional critics and veteran journalists who have worked for publications such as The Times, The Guardian, The Telegraph. They are freelance reviewers of art, music, dance and theatre, who post reviews online. In 2019, it signed a deal with JPI Media that would allow I news to feature arts reviews and other articles written by the website's editors.

Contributors to the website include Aleks Sierz, Adam Sweeting and Joe Muggs.

Upon its launch, The Telegraph deemed it as one of the best culture websites on the internet. In 2012, it won an Online Media Award as the best specialist journalism site, jointly with the website for The Economist. Prospect magazine described it as "Britain’s first professional arts critics website".
