Arts Project Australia is a creative social enterprise that supports artists with intellectual disabilities, promoting their work and advocating for their inclusion within contemporary art practice. Our Northcote studio sees 130 artists with an intellectual disability attending each week. The Arts Project Australia studio functions in a similar way to a tertiary environment where artists work on developing an original and authentic "voice" supported by artsworkers (all professional artists) who provide feedback and critical advice. Here, art is not taught, but rather the innate creative direction of each artist is nurtured to elicit works of personal meaning and style. Media includes painting, drawing, creamics, printmaking, puppetry and digital media. Our gallery stages a full annual program of changin exhibitions featuring work by artists from Arts Project Australia as well as the broader community. Arts Project Australia artists enjoy exhibition opportunities in a range of local, national and international galleries. Artists are also represented in many public and private collections.
