Art in the Gart & Project Ability
The Gartnavel Royal Hospital will host a colourful and inspirational exhibition of artwork by artists from Project Ability's ReConnect studios and in-patients, created in response to the theme of Reflections.
Each year Art in the Gart and Project Ability team up to present an exhibition in the Gartnavel Royal Hospital. This partnership has flourished over the years, with artworks made by artists from Project Ability's ReConnect studios, and artists who are in-patients at the Gartnavel Royal.
Working with a Project Ability arts tutor, in-patients are given the opportunity to be included in the exhibition, which adorns the walls for the remainder of the year, adding colour and inspiration to the halls of Gartnavel Royal.
Working with the theme of Reflections, the exhibition allows each artist to express themselves uniquely, within one unified theme.
