Looking to get creative and be inspired? Then we have an amazing opportunity for you!

Funded through Dumfries and Galloway Council’s Regional Art Fund and DG Unlimited we have collaborated with six local artists to create an online art community which provides accessible videos to enable the exploration of different art practices

Each artist has made two videos, and each video is a self-contained art lesson. They have clear instructions and visuals and contain closed captions.
