Bloomin' Arts offers opportunities for adults with learning and multiple disabilities to enjoy, develop skills, perform and work in the arts.
Donate to this charity
Bloomin' Arts can support up to 100 participants and employ high quality specialist freelance tutors who run small friendly arts-based courses, working to everyone’s strengths.
We aim to support each person to grow in creativity and have confidence in their abilities by: - providing opportunities to support social and emotional personal development; gain practical life skills; improve mental and physical health; increase independence; and take greater control over their own lives.
We also work to challenge negative attitudes towards people with disabilities through our outreach work. Our participants support us to provide inspiring and quality cultural opportunities to our artistic and local community. In 2019 we spent 12 weeks working with a local primary school to develop their understanding of Shakespeare whilst educating them about learning disabilities and celebrating differences, teaching them valuable lessons about respect and tolerance of others.
Just by working with our participants every day, we are able to see and hear the difference we have made.
