Do you want to empower communities through the power of art?
Socially engaged arts practice seeks to do this, through collaboration and participation with people, through co-authored and co-produced activities that helps to define an environment, attitude or experience. Often the process of these interactions is as important as the visual artworks produced.
Students will be supported to consider pressing social issues such as inclusion, mental health, homelessness, regeneration and sustainability amongst many others to enable students of this course to explore a wider variety of real-life scenarios. Students will then be supported to apply an artistic approach and understanding to developing conversations and debate around these areas with relevant stakeholders within a community.
Artists have a history of using their creativity to highlight the topics that matter to them. If you want to be part of the next generation of socially engaged artists - through either full-time or part-time study - our socially engaged arts practice programme is for you.
To join this MA you should have a second class honours degree, 2:2 or above.
