Creative Connections is for anyone over the age of 60 in the Western Isles who feels isolated due to geography, disability, illness, caring commitments, or other factors.

Online workshops are available throughout the year in a range of visual arts disciplines. They are typically one hour sessions running for a 6-week block. Book via our website.

Courses typically have a maximum of 12 participants. Participants will receive a pack of art materials in advance of the first session.

The project is funded by the Communities Mental Health and Wellbeing Fund. At the end of the courses you will be invited to fill in a participant survey.
