About Accessible Arts And Media

Accessible Arts And Media is a registered charity based in Clifton, York, running arts and creative media learning projects in and around the city since 1982. We believe that everyone can learn, be creative, and play a part in their local community—with the right support, which we provide.

A diverse range of people participate in our projects, including disabled adults and young people, older individuals with dementia and memory loss, and those experiencing mental ill-health. We also collaborate with schools, community groups, and local businesses.

We offer a variety of fun, inclusive creative learning programmes, from singing and signing choirs to specialist sensory activities that support wellbeing, accessible music-making groups, and creative sensory activities involving music and movement.
