Join us for the first PERSPECTIVES event by Venture Arts on 1-2 October

We are proud to announce that we will be hosting one of the Venture Arts events as part of the new PERSPECTIVES series of exhibitions, happenings and creative exchanges. The programme invites 80 learning disabled artists to occupy contemporary and historical venues across Greater Manchester. 

We will be kicking off the event and on the 1-2 October will be joined by artist Leslie Thompson from Venture Arts, and Manchester artist and illustrator Matt Girling (11am-4pm). They will draw inspiration from their memories, capturing the bustling environment and passers-by in a large-scale site-specific drawing that will evolve into a fleeting interpretation of Manchester city life. 

Passers by can capture this process of this evolving work and share it with us on social media using the hashtag #PERSPECTIVESVA

Running until February 2019, PERSPECTIVES will share different viewpoints from each artist, showing how they view and exist in the world today as practicing contemporary artists with learning disabilities.
