darts (Doncaster Community Arts)

Our mission is to create art with people in Doncaster to improve life, learning and health. We focus on delivering creative activity with:

schools
children & young people living with disability
vulnerable children & young people
adults experiencing mental health issues
those with long-term health conditions, particularly dementia

We offer a safe space to try different, sometimes challenging, and often transformative creative activities. With over 30 years’ experience, we know that taking part in creative activity helps people fulfil their potential by making positive changes.

We usually deliver high quality creative activities at The Point - our fully accessible and inclusive public building - and in communities across the Doncaster borough. We have responded to the coronavirus pandemic by adapting all of our activities to meet the needs of our participants and the wider population whilst we stay at home.

Our artists and frontline team are developing live, recorded and downloadable online activity as well as approaches for those who may not have access to computers or the internet. Professional artists including musicians, visual artists and poets are creating compelling content targeted at engaging families, older people, young people and adults with poor mental health.
