We recognise the power of art to transform young lives, build confidence, raise aspirations, and support the development of personal skills. We anticipate that art will be an integral route to connecting with our children as well as to upskilling them for life beyond the justice system in the industry and/or beyond. Whether you are a qualified art teacher, a passionate artist, or an art tutor, we are looking for people who want to make a difference to the lives of children in custody. If you are a skilled and passionate artist and would like to invest in children, we would love to hear from you.
