Christmas Craft Fair ***FEATURED ARTIST***

There is only 1 week left until our Christmas Craft and we are all very busy over at MCC HQ getting things ready, so to start off our count down week we would like to feature a organisation that will be at our event promoting themselves as well as selling some brilliant work.

Venture Arts is unique in the North West. Since 1985 it has been providing a bright, lively and welcoming environment for people with learning difficulties to produce quality artwork.
Twelve-week projects form the basis of the creative work, each centred on a theme. Responding to the theme, participants produce innovative work using a wide range of different mediums, including photography, ceramics, mosaics, 3D, painting and textiles.
Exhibitions at the end of each project allow the creative talent at Venture Arts to be displayed at high-profile venues in the North West. In the past they have exhibited at The Lowry, Manchester Art Gallery, People’s History Museum, St George’s Hall, Lymm Festival, Chorlton Arts Festival and Dadafest.

We are lucky enough to have them with us on the 12th selling Christmas Cards designed by individuals from workshops as well as 2011 calenders, Cups and Sauces, and much more!
You can find out more about Venture Arts and the fantastic projects they have been involved in here!
