Letting in the Light

Letting in the Light are a participatory arts company based in North Staffordshire working across the West Midlands and beyond. We work with many communities and agencies to devise creative projects that meet a need, explore a question, promote development through training, result in site specific art, and through this process ensure exposure to a high quality art experience. Each project is bespoke and is carefully designed to engage and promote participation with a specific group whether it is the community, young people with learning disabilities, adults with mental illness, older people living in isolation with dementia, care workers, market traders or a young persons hospital forum. We collaborate with an ever-growing number of associate artists and practitioners to feed our development and the breadth of our projects and to support the future of the creative industries.

Our aims are to continue:
· To develop both the digital and hands on activities we offer as an integral part of each project.
· To seek out and work with disadvantaged communities
· To attract new and emerging artists and practitioners to work with for our mutual development and to contribute to the local creative economy
· To increase our activity in terms of sharing our work with a wider audience through social media and more traditional routes.
