Some of the things we do
Activities for artists with disabilities
Factory Arts offers inclusive art activities for artists with disabilities in an authentic, artist-led space within the Fletcher Jones factory. Participants create art drawn from their own experiences, and work alongside other local artists. Our activities are geared towards engagement, participation, social inclusion and interaction, and offer participants the chance to develop skills and produce quality artistic outcomes.
Our studio activities include painting, pottery, drawing and sculpture, and we offer a no-obligation trial class to check if the participant enjoys working with us and our activities. We run Mentors & Makers, an annual group exhibition for artists with disabilities, and include our artists in other planned group exhibitions in Melbourne and regional centres.
