Ms Liz Burcham,The City of Newcastle’s Cultural Director
will officially open the Bounceback art exhibition this Thursday 5th
March at 6pm. The exhibition fills
Gallery 1 and 2 in NAS and the Black Box Theatre space simultaneously. Some participants have taken part in monthly
open self-directed learning workshops at NCAC over the past months while others
have been working with art therapy activities under the guidance of health
professionals, artists, family and carers. Some have already gained exhibiting experience
in the arts. This exhibition is
supported by the Arts In Recovery Programme, assisting participants to face and
overcome their individual personal challenges in life while using artistic
expression and art discovery to encourage these endeavours. There are walls of colour, darker
images and overall powerful examples of imagination, interpretation and
individuality. Step inside and
experience art through their eyes where individual
differences clearly unite us as one collective community.
