Challenging perceptions and encouraging debate!
Creative MindsĀ are holding a one day conference to profile the voices of learning disabled artists and support them in being heard by arts critics, venue programmers, funders and academics.
Chaired by Matthew Hellett of the committee of learning disabled artists behind Creative Minds, the conference is designed to confront perceptions and encourage debate about definitions of quality in learning disabled arts practice. It wants to widen the net of audiences who see this work, valueing it for what it is ā work that can be of a high quality.
The day will include performance, film and visual arts, offering attendees the chance to see and then discuss a variety of artforms.
Anyone interested in finding a critical language for learning disabled art is welcome.
You can join the conversation now, on the website, and then follow Creative Minds as it travels around the country.
Creative Minds is led by learning disabled aartists and performers. It is about seeing, talking and questioning. They aim to get people talking about how we know that art by learning disabled artists and performers is good and of a high quality.
