About Us

is a not for profit social enterprise which tackles difficult issues in society with art and art-related activities. We give people without a voice a platform and the chance to speak out.

Our projects, exhibitions, events and workshops bring people of different cultures, interests and backgrounds together to interact, create and learn. We commission work, stage and tour exhibitions, develop Education packs and offer workshops to engage audiences.

Current projects include:


Mothers and Sisters , looking at Islamic traditions of embroidery and pattern. We have developed sewing kits and and Education Pack around this with the Royal School of Needlework. We are now extending our work with fabric and needlework with an exciting new initiative to regenerate commercial embroidery sampling for the UK fashion industry.
