Free 1:1 Support from The Highrise Project
The Highrise Project is a socially engaged collaboration to explore the impact of creativity in developing local spaces with communities. We use ethnographic and artistic approaches to co-produce work with residents and other participants, as well as supporting people to develop their skills and interests.
We are now offering free 1:1 support for visual artists and photographers in Leeds. The sessions will take place at Armley Community Hub and Library in Leeds on Tuesdays between 10.30am - 3.30pm in June, July and August.
The support is open to people at all stages of their visual arts journey, and includes 1:1 art making tutorials, advice on curating exhibitions, running workshops, applying for funding, social media, websites, producing publications, working with researchers, becoming self employed, and lots more.
Please complete the form and we'll get back to you asap with a date to meet: https://forms.gle/

A bit more about the Highrise Project...
The Highrise Project is run by Louise Atkinson (PhD Fine Art) and Victoria Kortekaas (BA Visual Communications). Louise also has her own visual arts practice as well as running the online arts platform, CuratorSpace. Victoria specialises in photography and artist publications.
We’re passionate about using art and creativity as a way for people to tell their own stories, as well as enabling them to learn new skills or share existing ones.
We bring people together to explore ideas of place making and community in general, incorporating ESOL and other forms of support as required to ensure that our workshops are accessible to everyone.
