Tuesdays from 5:30pm | FREE
Creatability offers a unique mix of expressive arts for neurodiverse and/or disabled children and young people with additional needs aged four to 21 years old. Sessions create a safe and friendly atmosphere for children and young people to channel and express their creativity, encouraging a supportive atmosphere among peers, while building skills in theatre performance, rhythm and sound, visual arts and everyone’s favourite… aerial dance!
All activities are free to take part in thanks to funding from Creative Scotland Youth Arts Access Fund, Youth Music Initiative and The Foyle Foundation and the Weston Culture Fund.
We are proud to offer these classes alongside our valued partners All or Nothing Ariel Dance, Waterbaby Dance, Where’stheone and Drake Music.
