Arts for All is a community arts organisation located in Belfast's Cityside Retail Park. For 24 years, it has served as a base for community arts in north Belfast, with a core mission to offer participation in the arts to support community development, education, and social cohesion. The organisation's vision is to help create a more cohesive, confident, and creative community. It believes positive change is achievable through arts projects that improve residents' lives and foster ongoing community involvement. Initiatives include the 'I am Inspired' Project, started in 2017, which provides a space for adults with learning disabilities to engage with various art mediums. Thanks to funders, community art classes are offered at no cost to remove financial barriers.
