Young At Art

Belfast Print Workshop is a city-centre print studio established in 1977, located in the heart of Belfast’s Cathedral Quarter. Housed in a historic former warehouse, the spacious, accessible workshop is equipped with traditional and contemporary printmaking equipment and is committed to a low-toxic environment. The organisation offers a variety of courses for all ability levels. A membership programme provides access to equipment, materials, and a network of artists. In 2020, an in-house gallery space was opened to exhibit work from members and visiting artists. The workshop delivers a year-round programme of exhibitions and events that showcases diverse printmaking techniques from both emerging and established artists. It also maintains a significant historical archive of prints from every edition printed at the workshop, which serves as a cultural resource for the region.

The Arts Council of Northern Ireland is the primary funding and development organisation for the arts sector in the region. It distributes funds from its sponsor, the Department for Communities, and from the National Lottery. The council's mission is to support, develop, and champion high-quality arts and cultural activity by artists, arts practitioners, organisations, and communities throughout Northern Ireland. It aims to make the arts accessible to everyone, creating opportunities for people from all backgrounds to participate and bringing communities together. Reported impact includes a £20.1m investment in the arts, reaching 2.2 million audience members and participants, with 77% population engagement.

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. The organisation also operates the John Luke Gallery, an exhibition space for both emerging and established artists, hosting over 24 exhibitions annually.
