Artists and creatives are used to challenges! We know the fruits of this can be innovation, creation, inspiration – even when motivation is waning.<\/p>\n

ArtsACTION is based in keeping our spirits up and remaining productive \u2013 regardless of circumstances. With this in mind we\u2019ve recently delivered three workshops to nearly 300 participants, against the backdrop of catastrophic summer fires and Covid-19.<\/p>\n
