Come along to the launch night of the A Team’s ‘Spectrum of Expression’ art exhibition on 24th October at The Vale 6-8pm
We have been working with Mossley’s A Team to create artworks and co-curate an exhibition of their work across Mossley this October. The A Team are a group of autistic people aged 14+ and their family and support network. Working in the mediums of clay, photography and paint they have explored expressing their interests, what the group means to them and their own artistic expression for the past 3 months.
The exhibition is open to view at The Vale from 25th October for one week – for full viewing schedule click here.
“I have loved the friendly, safe environment to be creative. I have learnt a lot about photography and enjoyed every session.” (Theresa – A Team Participant)
“The A Team are so excited to be working with the Vale on the art project. Members of the group have expressed how being creative is not only fun and relaxing but it helps the group to talk freely and comfortably in a welcoming and supportive space which is hugely beneficial to their wellbeing. The exhibition will be an opportunity for the group to express individuality , as well as raise awareness of autism & neurodiversity and what support is out there should anyone need it.” (Jacky Ellison – A Team)
This exhibition is kindly funded by Mossley Parish Council, Tameside Creative Fund and part-funded by the UK government through the Flexible Local Authority Grants.
