ACHF Arts Access
Individual project participants engaged with this opportunity for self-expression demonstrate pride in the community and their creative ability. Participants visit the installation with families/guardians, some participants will seek additional arts opportunities, staff-artist debriefing meetings held after every third workshop.
We had over 100 individuals create artwork and many wanted to create more and seek out other mediums to continue their artistic nature. Feedback from participants. There were a number of debriefing discussions with staff, the Compas artist and people who created the artwork.
