Ori Art Project was started in 2008 as a therapy program, it has over time evolved and become a professional training program for talented artists with disabilities who participate in a formal art training program.
Currently we have a professional artist, Richard Scott, who mentors the 7 artists and provides training and coaching to the team. In 2019 the program will once again expand and re-introduce the therapy side for those who attend the adult and children’s day-care centres.
Problem statement: Art is in the eye of the beholder, so the problem is predominantly in the production of pieces that will sell.
Goal: To, through the program, train the artists so that they can strive to become independent artists
