About Stirchley Art Room

Stirchley Art Room aims to provide our local community with positive and enjoyable experiences with making art  to support personal and collective creative development, health and well-being. 
Our long term aim is to establish an inclusive community art room for Stirchley and the surrounding areas, with spaces and equipment for drop-in use. We envisage a vibrant and welcoming creative hub that connects artists and community together. 
​We are a not for profit Social Enterprise, constituted as a Community Interest Company (CIC) in April 2019.  Since then we have initiated and participated in a range of community arts projects, using funding awarded from organisations including Arts Council England, National Lottery Communities Fund, and the Postcode Community Trust. For more information, please see pages detailing our Current and Past Projects. 
"Great idea for a wonderful community space, beneficial for all the people who live nearby and further afield!"

"Fantastic idea. Crafts & mental health go hand-in-hand, so this will help people in need in the community in a non-intrusive way."
Steve
We are qualified artist educators with extensive teaching experience in a variety of settings, and a professional understanding of art pedagogy. We have vast practical expertise in supporting individuals’ creative development, and of working with individuals & groups with a wide variety of ages, abilities & needs.
​We love what we do, and we do it with passion! We look forward to working with you.
