New Courses Coming Soon!
Creative Communities Project 2023 - 2025
Our successful ‘Creative Communities’ project, funded by the National Lottery has now delivered its last workshops in South Leeds. We've been delighted to work in South Leeds, engaging with so many participants, volunteers and community organisations.
Our final exhibition showcasing the fantastic creativity, talent and community of South Leeds was open to the public at Leeds City Museum from the 9th June until September 1st 2025.
Please also have a look at what we have been up to in Belle Isle and Hunslet in the artists residencies below.
Community Artists Residencies
We have now delivered two community artist residencies. The artists worked in Hunslet and Belle Isle.
They worked with groups, individuals, and key organisations from the area, collecting stories reflecting the Pride and Place theme.
The artists have facilitated arts activities to help collect stories and increase engagement in the project. Members of the community worked together with the artist to co-create a piece of lasting artwork which will remain in the community. Each residency lasted for 12 weeks, with the artist working in the area 2 days a week.
