Welcome to Independent Arts
Independent Arts is a small local charity, based on the Isle of Wight. We work with a variety of people from disadvantaged backgrounds across the island, particularly the elderly, those with learning difficulties and the disabled.
Workshops for Wellbeing
Independent Arts delivers creative workshops across the Isle of Wight. Activities for participants include arts and crafts; movement; music and singing; and reminiscence. These can be delivered in a range of settings including within residential homes, specialist units and community centres.
Projects
As well as our workshops, Independent Arts delivers arts-based projects in the community. We are always working to develop new partnerships, project ideas and obtain funding for the projects we want to deliver, to ensure that residents of the island are benefiting through being involved with the arts.
Donate to Independent Arts
We need everyone’s support. As an Isle of Wight charity, Independent Arts does not always get the same funding from grant organisations as mainland charities and so we need your help.
Our sessions bring people together to talk, participate in a creative or performing art form, and most importantly, to enjoy themselves.
