Art Shape

Art Shape runs a countywide programme of arts courses and projects with a specific focus on disability issues and social inclusion. Established in 1993, we are a small band of dedicated workers passionate about supporting and enabling people who face barriers to realise their creative and learning potential. We do this in many ways, by working closely with communities and their leaders and responding to need. We provide opportunities for adults and children facing disabling barriers, particularly learning disabilities, physical disabilities, mental health difficulties, victims of domestic abuse and older people. We strive to aid community cohesion, bringing diverse groups together to work on projects and get involved in community events. Art Shape’s distinct skill in socially inclusive practice is developing tailor made provision to meet specific needs of individuals, communities and organisations and directly engaging people through the arts on their own terms.
