Discover I Am A Creator – Inspire’s exciting new programme of creative opportunities for people of all ages! Inspired by some of the fascinating insights we uncovered as part of our ground-breaking, Arts Council England funded, I Am A Reader project, I Am A Creator aims to bring audiences - who may not always recognise themselves as creative – together with professional writers and artists as they co-create exciting new work across a range of mediums.
These exhibitions provide an inspiring glimpse into the programme so far, which began its first year with I Am A Writer and second year with I Am An Artist. Come and see some of the brilliant and creative work being produced as part of the project.
Through writing, artwork, photography and audio the I Am A... exhibition seeks to convey the inspiring story of our I Am A Creator project, which saw established writers and artists working with groups of people in the community to co-create exciting pieces of new work - with the ultimate aim of giving voice to people who may not often be heard. They also help to celebrate the resulting I Am A Creator publications and podcast series!
Enjoy some of the wonderful work co-created with the groups - which included people living with dementia, older people and neurodiverse families - and get a behind-the-scenes look at the project through images captured by photographer Neil Pledger.
