The Project

Community Arts Network partnered with Sir David Brand School in 2024 to bring explorative art workshops to students with disabilities, with the rare opportunity to learn from and collaborate with professional artists.

Led by award-winning artists Natalie Scholtz, and Mandy White, a Yamiji artist with lived experience of disability, this project aimed to illuminate pathways into the arts for young people with disabilities. The outcomes prove the power of inclusive culture making, and show us what’s possible on the stage of contemporary art in Western Australia.
