Headway Arts joins the ACCAC Global Network

Today we have joined the ACCAC Global Network as the official UK network partner: ACCAC UK.

ACCAC Global is an international network and community that promotes accessibility, equity, and inclusion through culture and art. The network’s goal is to increase opportunities for participation and raise awareness through events, seminars, workshops, and training.

For almost 30 years Headway Arts has pioneered inclusive practices, leading the field in producing high quality participatory arts projects for and with people of all ages and backgrounds.

Our ethos is to offer opportunities for people to realise their creative potential, take part in meaningful creative activity, train and gain recognition for their skills, and achieve their artistic and creative ambitions regardless of their background. 

As part of ACCAC we will promote creative conversations internationally, challenging preconceptions and strengthening relationships between different communities and cultures.

We look forward to sharing and learning from our partners across the world.
