Call for Artists

Posted: 05/12/11 Project: General

Who?
Prism Arts are seeking artists to add to our new database. We are very keen to reach artists who are involved or interested in Disability and Deaf arts or artists working with older people and learning disabled adults.  We welcome all forms of artistic practice. 

Why?
The database will allow us to continue supporting artists as well as encouraging and promoting a thriving arts community in Cumbria.
Project Delivery:  We are always interested in artists who deliver work with disabled and deaf groups, older people and learning disabled adults.  We would love to hear from artists who are already working in these sectors as well as artists who would like to develop the skills to deliver in these sectors. 
Promoting artists through an online directory on the Prism Arts website:  In the future we will be promoting artists who deliver to excluded groups through our website.
Cumbria Disabled Artist Network:  We are creating a network for disabled artists based in Cumbria.  This network will enable artists to share ideas and opportunities and develop potential projects and collaborations.
To Apply:
To submit your details to the database or to find out more information please email::
