We are hosting a client art exhibition in our Day Centre, First Base, this May as part of Artist Open Houses. The exhibition will be a multi-discipline exhibit with both art and written word on display.
The dates for 2026's Artist Open Houses are:
- 2nd, 3rd, and 4th May
- 9th & 10th May
- 16& 17th May
- 23rd, 24th and 25th May
The aim of the project is to encourage clients across many of our projects to express themselves artistically in a variety of mediums such as painting, drawing, collage, poetry and journal writing. Exhibiting their artworks in public view will further boost their confidence.

You would also have the knowledge of having directly benefited the local community.
