The Creative Exchange Project Workbook

Each to Another was a unique art education programme designed to support disabled individuals to develop their artwork through sharing their work with others. The project guided participants on how to facilitate their very own art workshop.

“We often learn most when we have to teach others what we do. Learning by teaching is a great way to improve confidence and communication skills.”

The project was led by Art in Motion in collaboration with No Bindings and with support from Bristol Libraries, Spike Island Artspace and the Arnolfini. The project addressed issues faced by disabled artists, including challenges to access, inclusion and a lack of diversity in the arts.

Through three distinct programmes, individuals were supported to develop their art skills and share their practice through a series of public workshops which were held at Bristol Libraries.

The project culminated in a celebratory public event. Aspects of the project were captured by No Bindings. This collaboration result in a publication reflecting on the development of the individuals who took part.
