Welcome to the Arts Board

[janlovett]

Hallo everyone, and welcome to the Arts and Culture board.

I have recently set up ArtsNET and we are a small group at present, just getting started.

We will be looking at the picture of the Arts across the Borough; using Davina Sellick's questionnaire that was completed by service users across Bromley, who told us what they felt about accessing the Arts in Bromley. And we want to put right the difficulties that people have said they have encountered.

We also hope to be making an ArtsNET visit to the Tate Modern, to see how their visits and tours work for people who experience mental ill health, and use ourselves as guinea pigs before arranging for groups of service users to go along.

There will be lots of things that we will be doing as time goes on, but I just wanted to welcom you here and to ask you to post on here any questions or ideas that you may have about the Arts in Bromley.

I am also a member of the Bromley Arts Panel, representing not just Credo, but all people who experience mental ill health. I am ensuring that whatever the Borough's strategy for the Arts is about, that it is socially inclusive and really is Art for All.
