Dartmoor Arts Summer School Dartmoor Arts Project
About Dartmoor Arts Project:
Dartmoor Art Project is an artist-led organisation founded in 2006. We have hosted busy summer schools as well as a year round programme of events and artists' talks, bringing contemporary artists, writers & thinkers to a rural part of the south west.
COURSES & WORKSHOPS 2016: this year we are running a series of workshops for young, emerging and established artists to explore their practice and realise the possibilities of their work in an dynamic, creative and supportive environment. The events which include film-making, drawing and inflatable spatial structures - are also about continual professional development, dedicated completely to making your own work. It is also about opening up of opportunities for younger artists and in the past, many attendees have gone on to do amazing projects and exhibitions, inspired by our tutors, the artists they have met and the contacts they have made. Artist/educators take new skills away with them which they then share with their own students.
BURSARIES AVAILABLE FOR 2016:
Dartmoor Arts supports young and emerging artists and those with limited finances. A limited number of bursaries are available for 2016 courses. Apply from our website.
SUMMER SCHOOLS take place in Drewsteignton for a full week and have been run annually til 2015, and are to resume in 2017 if funding is received. The 2017 Summer School is proposed to take place as a brilliant week of creative practice where over 120 artists, architects & makers come together plus a lively programme of talks by contemporary artists. What makes our summer school unique is its relaxed, intimate scale where students have a chance to talk with leading artists, thinkers and writers on a one-to-one basis about their thoughts and ideas. The atmosphere is brilliant as artists work hard on their projects culminating in a productive end of week 'crit' and a tour of the other venues to see the work made by other students.
