A powerful exhibition celebrating recovery, solidarity and compassion

Join us at Art of Recovery Portsmouth!

Get ready for an inspiring in-person event celebrating creativity and recovery.

"Art of Recovery" a powerful exhibition by Project W curated by Creatful CIC. This special exhibition seeks to promote messages of recovery, solidarity, and compassion through the transformative power of creativity while addressing the critical need to remove stigma surrounding recovery in line with Portsmouth being an Inclusive Recovery City.

Pivot is Portsmouth’s first-ever Learning Disability Arts Festival — a bold, joyful and boundary-pushing celebration of creativity, inclusion and connection.

Over three inspiring days, Aspex Portsmouth will be transformed in a full-gallery takeover curated by the TNG Inclusive Arts Committee, a powerhouse group of 13 learning disabled artists. The festival showcases a vibrant mix of performances, participatory workshops, exhibitions and silent discos, all designed with accessibility at their core.
