Arthur Joseph Penty (17 March 1875–1937) was a British architect, and writer on Guild socialism and distributism. He was first a Fabian socialist, and follower of Victorian thinkers William Morris and John Ruskin. He is generally credited with the formulation of a Christian socialist form of the medieval guild, as an alternative basis for economic life.

Arthur Penty was born at 16 Elmwood Street, St Laurence, York, the second son of Walter Green Penty (1852–1902), architect, and his wife, Emma Seller. After attending St Peter's School in York he was apprenticed in 1888 to his father. He attracted national and even international attention, including favourable notice in Herman Muthesius's Das englische Haus (1904).

Penty left his father's office in 1901, and moved to London in 1902 to pursue his interest in the arts and crafts movement. His younger brother Frederick T. Penty (1879–1943) took over the business after their father died.

Around 1900 Penty met A. R. Orage; together with Holbrook Jackson they founded the Leeds Arts Club. All three moved to London in 1905 and 1906; Penty in fact led the way, and Orage lodged with him in his first attempts to live by writing.
