Exhibition: Touchbase, Glasgow
Everyone@trongate103 is an action research project funded by Engage Scotland which involved building new partnerships between Project Ability, Glasgow Print Studio, Street Level Photoworks, GMAC and Pamis.
The premise of the project was to consider how the arts organisations housed in Trongate 103 could include people with profound and multiple disabilities in their programmes as consumers and producers of art.
The volunteers: Sarah Yaqoob, Mathew Wildy, Michael Harkin, Allan Guy along with their carers were joined by artists Alicia Bruce (Street Level), Alain Johnston (GMAC), Meredith Crone (Project Ability) and Zephyr Liddel (Glasgow Print Studio).
Each week the team spread out and explored the galleries and public spaces afterwards bringing their ideas back to the workshop where they made work using the techniques and media they had seen in the exhibitions.
The exhibition runs from 10 April until 18 May 2012
