THERE IS ONE THING.......

Art Angel is a radical arts and mental health project based in Dundee where up to 200 places are offered each week to people with mental health concerns to get involved in a wide range of creative projects.

For more than twenty years Art Angel has been at the forefront of supporting people with mental health issues in their attempts to get well and stay well through active participation in the arts. From the outset we have seen ourselves as a project run for and by people with lived experience of mental ill-health and as such feel we can rightly claim to be like no other organisation of this type.

Key working practices such as continuity, long-term working in a non-clinical setting, offering support for people from the age of 16 up and aiming for standards of artistic excellence are the natural result of listening to what people say. Given a chance, each individual is the best person to take decisions about themselves - people don’t want to be observed, they want to be listened to: people don’t want short term support, they want to be trusted to decide when they no longer need support; people don’t like uncertainty, they like to know what to expect. We know this because they tell us.

Art Angel has joined forces with the excellent GENERATORprojects and would like to thank them for their continued support and opportunities.

There is One Thing….. runs at our Wellgate auxiliary space (the old New Look) from the 17th to the 30th of June, with opening hours of 10.30-4.30. (Closed Sundays).
