Our Programmes

Our programmes are always artist led and moulded from the ground up by the particular contexts of a community and its environment. We listen carefully to our participants and their teachers and carers, to their needs and their dreams, what they want to learn, how they would like to grow.

 

Most of our engagements run over months and years – so that relationships build and lasting change can happen. Even short-term Intensives leave joyful marks in a space that may inspire for years to come.

There are many ways to get involved...

...as an artist, volunteer or organisation.
