✨ Rethinking Ability Workshop – Thank You ✨ A huge thank you to everyone who joined us for our Rethinking Ability poetry workshop — what a beautiful session it was. We had such a lovely group, and it was clear how much everyone genuinely enjoyed the space. The creativity, honesty, and openness in the room made it really special. 🧡 From thoughtful reflections to powerful writing, it was amazing to see people connect, share (in whatever way felt right), and take time for themselves through creativity. We’re so grateful to have held this in collaboration with AGEM, and to have raised funds for Midland Mencap, supporting the important work they do in our community. This is exactly why we do what we do at AccessAbility Arts — creating inclusive, welcoming spaces where people can simply be themselves and create without pressure. Thank you again to everyone who came along — we hope you left feeling a little lighter and more connected. More workshops coming soon ✨ #RethinkingAbility #PoetryWorkshop #AccessibleArts #DisabilityInclusion #CreativeCommunity #MidlandsEvents #OnlineWorkshop #MentalHealthMatters #CommunityArts #AccessAbilityArts #AGEM

Shining a light on the introspective visual piece showcased by the exceptional @ifrah.studio at our latest exhibition. Ifrah’s work explores how skins and bodies can be reimagined into sensorial forms that can interact and inspire feelings of desire yet uncomfortability within the viewer. By mimicking flesh like forms the work aims to establish a familiarity with the body yet moves further into becoming its own bodily form. The sculpture can be interacted with by the audience via touch. 💕 Stay connected and show her some love @ifrah.studio 💕

Celebrating our recent exhibition, and shining a light on the wonderful visual piece showcased by the amazing @anei.jah 💕 Aneijah’s pieces are a visual representation of how she processes change creatively.
