Community
Art Kent CIC delivers a range of accessible arts workshops in community
settings, creative events, exhibitions and creative projects
·
We provide opportunities
for co-creation, participation & partnership working across art forms.
·
We provide creative
training in participatory arts and creative health & wellbeing.
We are committed to working with
members of the community that rarely access the arts and who are at risk of
social exclusion.
Our projects aim to improve mental health, reduce
loneliness, increase belonging and improve access to the arts for all
participants. Participants have opportunities to learn new skills and make
friends through creative social activities.
Activities are delivered through non-judgemental and
person-centred approaches. Safe spaces are provided where all participants
views are respected, and difference celebrated.
We deliver
projects to people living in Kent. Specifically older people aged 55+, children
& young people, those who are disadvantaged, those who currently have
little access to the arts, those that are socially excluded or at risk of
social exclusion.
We work in partnership with local arts organisations, charities, education, care providers & local government to deliver activities.
