Meet members of Blue Room, staff and associated artists to discover how this unique project began, and future plans. What started as weekly workshops for learning disabled artists has grown a myriad of offshoots, including Out of the Blue children’s art clubs, dance programme Expanding the Picture, Studio Me, and a new project with partners at Norton Priory Museum and Gardens, Runcorn. The event features a screening of The Journey, a film to which Blue Room’s roots can be traced, made in 2003 – 04 by Leo Fitzmaurice in collaboration with some current members.
Free, booking recommended
