Alongside the exhibition Residential at Baltic, Project Art Works will deliver a programme of workshops for local people, families and caregivers. A studio installation next to the main space will host a series of collaborative events that bring partners and collaborators, audiences and artists together in creative production. This programme follows awareness raising and relationship building in the North East of England which we have been engaged in the last year.

Join us on Wednesday 5 July at Towner Eastbourne for a private screening of our new short documentary KIN, directed and produced by Tim Corrigan and Esther Springett. Growing up Mell wished her autistic brother could speak – now, in adulthood, she realises you don’t have to talk to explain what you need. KIN is a coming of age story between two sisters (Mell and Janine) and their neurodivergent and autistic brother (Carl), exploring sibling relationships, family duty and care.

Calouste Gulbenkian Foundation Interview

From Jessica Courtney Bennett at projectartworks.org
In 2022 Project Art Works was a recipient of the Award for Civic Arts Organisations from Calouste Gulbenkian Foundation. The award was received in recognition of the digital platform we created for our communities to participate in creative work and to stay connected from their homes during lockdown. This included taking the studio online with our Studio B project and through the Support Collective. The online offer of the Support Collective still remains a key part of our delivery and a way of connecting with people in a more accessible way.
