Artists and Workshops
Below is some information about a selection of local artists who are available to work in schools and with young people. This is not the full range of artists on our database so if you can’t find an artist to meet your needs, give us a call.
We will update this list regularly, so if you would like your information included, please download and complete the KEAP Artists Database form and email to helen.reynolds@keap.org.uk
All these artists are listed on the KEAP artists database but if you wish to employ an artist working with children or vulnerable adults, please check their current CRB status, public liability insurance and ask for references.
