Alison Richardson with students at Xavier College
Accessible Arts delivered six workshops in sound and image collection as part of the Outreach Program.
The workshops engaged various special schools, support units, day programs and accommodation services in the Hawkesbury, Penrith and Blue Mountains region, and more than fifty participants were actively involved.
Under the direction of professional artists, participants used mini disc recorders and digital stills cameras to capture the sights and sounds that constitute the Places and Spaces they inhabit.
Participating services include Tallowood Special School (Kellyville); Xavier College (Llandilo); AFFORD Day Options (Windsor); AFFORD Cherrywood Accommodation Service (Llandilo); Disability Enterprises – Leura Day Options (Blue Mountains).
My Space, My Place on 24 October – 7 November 2007
As part of My Space, My Place a multimedia exhibition showcasing the results of the workshops will take place at the Powerhouse Youth Theatre, Fairfield. This project was supported by Information & Cultural Exchange.
