Young Blue Room is the Bluecoat’s new inclusive arts group with young learning disabled and neurodivergent people aged 16-25. Over a series of creative sessions, the young artists uncovered some of the hidden stories of the arts centre by exploring our archive and spaces. This inaugural exhibition shared their experience of spending time observing the traces of history in the architecture of our building through drawing and printmaking.
This exhibition was part of Liverpool’s Neurodiversity Arts Festival with the Brain Charity. NDAF 24 is a vibrant celebration of neurodivergent talent, diverse perspectives and creative expression, dedicated to celebrating neurodiversity and providing a platform for neurodivergent artists.
Young Blue Room was developed in collaboration with Sandfield Park School and is supported by the Heritage National Lottery.
