Art For All is a far-reaching learning and outreach programme offering practical art workshops and talks to those in formal education, families, disadvantaged groups and women prisoners at HMP Send. The project needs funding to extend this work to the community, more schools and two further prisons.

    Situation

    The general affluence in Surrey conceals hidden deprivation. Child poverty has increased by 10pc, there are pockets of high unemployment & social exclusion in the South East has the highest rates of sickness absence & stress-related illness. Prisoners, young offenders, excluded pupils and groups with mental illness have little access to art courses. Art is more compromised on the national curriculum with little focus on traditional skills and general lack of awareness of local cultural heritage.

    Solution

    Art For All Learning Programme will reach out to these disadvantaged groups and communities to improve social cohesion, encourage a sense of achievement & higher self esteem. We will extend art skills courses to help with the rehabilitation of more prisoners in more prisons. We will also offer more schools and colleges the chance to be inspired by the Watts collection, learn about historic Compton and to learn a range of craft and pottery skills in the well-equipped Foyle Art for All Studio.
