Art
with Heart Creative Workshop
Wednesday 11th May, 2pm @ The Hut
Award-winning
Art with Heart will
be running a creative session with Creative Recovery!
Art
with Heart are currently developing their new theatre production,
Declaration with The Lowry Theatre Manchester.
Declaration is a raw,
honest and hopeful exploration of ADHD, mental health and diagnosis
and need your help!
Autobiographically
written, with comedy, storytelling and conversations with audiences,
Art with Heart are looking for people to give them feedback on their
work. They will be sharing 20 minutes of Declaration, asking for
feedback and running a short creative workshop to discuss diagnosis
and mental health
There will be limited spaces to 15 people, if you would like to take part please contact the office on 01226 320147.
Instinctive,
curious, bold and bouncy; Sarah is a mighty proud square peg, which
wouldn’t be such a problem if the hole wasn’t so damn round.
Sarah
grew up feeling different. Her childhood Doctor thought it was sugar.
Her current Doctor thinks its ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactive
Disorder). Sarah still feels different, so what will a label do? Will
it change the way you see her and the way she sees herself?
Developed
in consultation with medical professionals, ADHD and mental health
support groups, 'Declaration' examines when we want, need or are
forced to declare our differences, and the faces we wear to fit in.
Declaration
takes you on vibrant and daring adventure that asks you to roll
around in your weirdness, make a hat out of it and dance.
