Disability and Inclusion Programmes

Wac Arts offers a range of inclusive performing arts and media opportunities for young people with special educational needs and disabilities. We offer a varied programme with a wide range of activities from inspiring artwork and recording live music to swinging and movement with aerials equipment.

Young people develop skills, work creatively, build confidence and, most importantly, have fun!

We encourage students to develop as professional artists by giving them access to activities throughout the week and during school holidays.

Dance, music, art, sport, drama, vocals and more!
