Creativity
& Wellbeing

Creativity & Wellbeing is an integral part of Strathearn Arts’ artistic programme, enabling us to engage with the community by offering a variety of artistic and creative activities.

Active engagement in the arts, culture and creativity is beneficial to the health and wellbeing of all of us. Our Creativity & Wellbeing programme creates opportunities for participation and fulfilment of meaningful experiences. Taking part can help reduce anxiety and encourage communication, cooperation, fun and laughter. 

Our Creativity & Wellbeing classes have been running for two years now, and have helped many local people with opportunities to participate in a range of expressive, social and creative activities delivered in a fun, nurturing and non-judgemental environment.

Current Programme

Our current programme has been supported by Perth and Kinross Council’s Community Investment Fund and is specifically designed to bring together local people who are living with mental health challenges, and to mitigate some of the wellbeing risks they are facing.

 

This 8-week course is led by local pottery designer Jacquie Clark of Kinkell Studio who is teaching participants a range of pottery techniques.

 

Summer Family Art Workshops – Coming soon!

What Participants Say

I’m an unpaid carer so the group has given me some structure to my work and time to do something just for me. It has also allowed me to develop new skills and meet people – I’m otherwise quite socially isolated.

 

I struggle with social situations and I’m not confident but coming here helped to branch out and have something to do and get me out of the house every week.

 

I feel content after each session. It makes me feel calm. I am a carer at home and being creative gives we a sense of wellbeing.
