Story
Supporting displaced people through art and art therapy since 2006, in the UK and internationally, and offering crisis support and consultation to frontline staff in relation to Covid 19,
Art Refuge uses art and art therapy to support the mental health and well-being of people displaced due to conflict, persecution and poverty, both in the UK and internationally.
Established as a charity in 2006, we have operated as Art Refuge UK until 2019. We have changed our name to Art Refuge to reflect our widening remit and reach.
Our ongoing programmes take place in the UK and northern France while we are involved in shorter term interventions in other settings. We also deliver tailor-made arts-based training and skills-sharing workshops in the UK, Europe and internationally and welcome requests.
