The vital element on all our events is that they are participatory workshops and journeys of discovery absolutely specific to who, when and where - designed anew for each space/time and group.

Creative renewal and Professional Development events for Workshop/ Participatory Artists

These events are gatherings of artists who often work in isolation but have many areas of shared ideas and practice to have time out of the economic necessity of ‘the next gig’ to experiment, explore and share together. It is about developing practice through practice. These events are typically residential and can be for up to 50 artists but we also run mini-feasts over a day. We provide packs with support materials and articles and in the past we have worked with many themes including making The Museum of the Art of Workshop in three days with 35 artists. These events create new ways to work, fresh ideas, validation for artists, work opportunities, new collaborations, exciting documentation and are bursting with artistic mirth and mayhem.

Training Courses for Emerging Practitioners

We have designed several courses for artists who intend to ply their trade in the participatory arts field. These courses work on development in three areas: leadership skills, the work (content and form) and group process. These are hands-on courses that start from each participant looking at their own motivation and take them through the whole process to running workshops for each other and then ‘trial’ workshops in an organization.

Imaginative Development Events for Teachers

These whole day events called ‘The origins of learning - a creation myth’ are an opportunity to play, engage with a range of art forms, learn new skills but most essentially to find expression for that vital spark at the heart of teaching and learning - creativity. This is an
Opportunity for teachers, regardless of subject or age group, to look at, play with and reflect upon ways to deliver in imaginative forms.

Creativity for Therapists

At the heart of an arts workshop is the entwining of creative and group process. The strength and awareness of one half of this circle magnifies and enhances the other half of the circle. This is an opportunity for a group of therapists to work with a group of artists to increase their creative vocabulary in ways that informs both their individual and group practices.
