Artreach
Artreach is an inclusive member-led arts service offering opportunities to adults predominantly with a learning disability to access high quality opportunities to access participatory arts.
About the Project
In 2010 Art Reach was created to inspire, develop and showcase the artistic talents of learning disabled adults in Stirling and the surrounding areas. Art Reach projects are designed in conjunction with participants and we take a holistic and multi-disciplinary approach to creative activities, facilitating workshops that encompass visual arts, sound, video, movement, music and performance.
We are committed to celebrating ambitious and bold art made by learning disabled artists and do so by sharing creative spaces, collaborating, learning from one another and making together. By undertaking collaborative practice we facilitate artistic achievements, as well as encouraging social interaction, communication and connection.
Currently the project is based in the Riverbank Resource Centre in Stirling.
