Artist Development
Nurturing the practice and work of deaf and disabled creatives.
CRIPtic Arts is incredibly excited to announce the re-launch CRIPtic Cultivate: our artist development programmes for 2024.
Nurturing the practice and work of disabled creatives is integral to us. In 2024 we are running 4 artist development projects, Reach, Launchpad, Breakthrough and Incubate, designed for emerging writers, fresh performers, experienced creatives, and company innovators.
