Referral details
Referals are not necessary and parents/ carers or young people themselves can contact us by calling the phone numbers or emailing the email address provided. From there we would invite the young person and their parent or carer to come and have a look around the studio when a session is happening. Then we would discuss the young persons interests, what they would like to learn at Venture Arts and look at placing them in an appropriate class.Venue notes

Fun and engaging workshops for learning disabled children and young people aged 8-25 years. Our weekly Young People’s Art Club sessions are fully accessible and designed for individuals.
Young artists get the opportunity to make new friends and explore a variety of creative skills across long-term projects. Areas covered include photography, film, animation, illustration, ceramics and textiles.
The team nurture creative talent by tailoring sessions over long-term projects to match individual need and interests.
As part of this programme, young people show their work in exhibitions at professional art venues such as The Lowry at Salford Quays.
