ART SHAPE LIMITED

Art Shape Limited is a Gloucestershire-based charity dedicated to enhancing lives through creativity and inclusivity. We deliver a countywide programme of arts courses and projects, with a particular focus on supporting individuals facing barriers to creative engagement, including those with disabilities and long-term health conditions. Our work promotes social inclusion and community cohesion, offering bespoke training and opportunities for personal and professional development in the arts. We are a founding member of Create Gloucestershire, working to inform policy and strategy at both local and national levels.

Art Shape’s unique skill lies in developing tailored provision to meet specific needs, directly engaging people through the arts on their own terms. We provide a range of services including inclusive arts courses, training for professionals, and support for communities and organisations. We strive to bridge gaps in provision and champion everyone’s right to creative experience.

Established in 1993, Art Shape is a small team of dedicated individuals committed to making a difference. We work closely with partners and stakeholders to achieve our vision of a more creative and inclusive Gloucestershire.
