AccessArt, Turning Point Scotland Christmas Exhibitions

Dumfries & Newton Stewart.

Art work produced by the participants of AccessArt, a service operated by social care charity Turning Point Scotland (TPS) will be on display throughout the region, showcasing the new and original artwork created from a variety of mixed mediums– drawing, painting, print, collage and 3d - produced over this last year. Artwork, framed or unframed, will be for sale at very reasonable prices – great for a unique Xmas gift.

AccessArt provides opportunities for people to make art who might not ordinarily have the chance to do so.  People with a wide range of learning difficulties, physical disabilities, and mental health conditions, as well as those recovering from drug and alcohol abuse have accessed the service. 

People attend group or individual sessions, working with an artist who provides guidance, encouragement and materials to help develop each person’s skills and interests.   The range and quality of work on display is a tribute to the efforts and abilities of the participating artists.
