Express Yourself Launch - Please see below due to different events and different venues

Welcome to the latest creative endeavour from the team who brought you The Lofthouse. Yes, we are back with a series of funded workshops to promote the Arts for mental health and well being. We have been very fortunate to secure funding from The Big Lottery and The Arts Council to provide a range of Arts workshops led by some fantastic practitioners who are prominent in their fields.

The workshop will run from December til March 2019 and will culminate in an exhibition/performance/celebration event organised and staged by participants.

This event is our launch weekend. Come along and get involved !!
