Artist opportunities
Develop professionally
Along with offering affordable studio spaces, we also provide opportunities to help you to develop professionally, such as workshops, training sessions, peer crits, panel discussions and the sale of your art through Own Art.
What’s going on?
Bow Skills workshop: exploring art psychotherapy and working with diverse needs in arts projects with Dr Lily Hsu
As artists work more closely with individuals with diverse needs, the question arises: how can we work in a manner that is creative, yet sensitive and safe? Join art psychotherapist Dr Lily Hsu for a reflective and interactive session diving into this question and its implications in our artistic practices.
