Outreach

The Crescent Arts Outreach programme is organised in partnership with community and voluntary groups, schools, hospitals, hostels and day centers to provide innovative, sustainable arts activities for the whole community which encourage creative expression, cultural understanding and enjoyment.

The workshops are facilitated by the Crescent Outreach Team of experienced community artists, who work closely with the groups to develop activities that meet their particular needs and creative aspirations.
