Summary
There is a growing interest in the role artists and other creative practitioners can play outside of traditional cultural spaces such as galleries, theatres and museums. Creative individuals can indeed apply their skills within community contexts, as well as specific domains of health, education, social welfare or other sectors. This MA in Participatory Arts will allow you to develop a better understanding of how you can apply your skills in social contexts.
On this course, alongside the traditional classroom setting, you can take up industry-based learning opportunities where you can put theory into practice, and will be supported as part of a growing community of practitioners working in this way. The knowledge and skills that you will gain will prepare you to work with organisations with community-based outreach departments, but will also enable you to develop an exciting freelance career.
The course will appeal to a range of people including: those who already, or want to, work within participatory arts settings (ie community arts, or socially engaged practice) and want to broaden your understanding of your professional practice; those with significant workplace experience who want to gain a formal qualification in a flexible manner; and recent graduates of fine, contemporary or performing arts courses, especially those who have developed a set of artistic skills and want to learn how to apply them to community projects.
