Art of Life is a creative arts organisation that aims to enhance personal, professional and educational development through a range of unique, collaborative and interactive workshops, projects, and training events.

Our creative workshops include, Art, Photography, Music, Drama, Video-Making, Sculpture, Media, Graphic Design and InteractiveCVs

Through our creative workshops, projects and training we explore a wide range of subjects, topics and issues which include self-esteem, communication skills, identity, relationships, anger management, environment, drug awareness, relapse prevention, harm minimisation, bullying, peer pressure and sexual health issues. Our aim is to provide a platform for individuals to express themselves in new creative ways and channel their energy in positive and productive ways.

The diverse projects and workshops are designed to give participants the opportunity to explore new ways to express themselves through a range
of creative art forms. We strongly believe that by combining creativity with everyday situations and experiences, people are able to develop the confidence and self-esteem to realise their full potential. As a result they are able to learn and apply skills that are portable and transferable within all aspects of their lives.

We have a multi-sensory approach to training which has involved the use various creative art forms in order to develop effective tools and techniques. These include music technology, drama, digital, media, photography, video-editing, creative writing, graphic design.

Art of Life was created to enable our facilitators to fuse their creative art specialisms with their teaching and training skills.
