Participation

Vital Arts’ participation programme develops creative partnerships with renowned London based cultural institutions to provide patients, staff and visitors opportunities to relax, take a breath, and engage with the arts.

Participation projects

  • Dance

    Working in close collaboration with Trinity Laban, Akademi, and Studio Wayne McGregor, we deliver ongoing, in depth residencies in partnership with key hospital staff including physiotherapists.

  • Music and sounds

    Bringing international lullabies to neonatal babies, their mothers and carers, composition workshops to adolescents attending the hospital school and informal, interactive performances for adults.

  • Creative

    We partner with a variety of creative organisations who bring their unique skill set to our hospital community. From recipe writing to mark making, we offer workshops and interventions that offer respite to those who participate.

  • Commission workshops

    Artists commissioned by Vital Arts to produce site specific work are invited to spend time with patients, delivering arts workshops and sharing insights into their practice and techniques.
