Part of Gillian's work involves her using her skills and experience as a practising artist to develop, deliver and facilitate participatory projects that encourage creative learning. She works with galleries, universities, schools, youth groups, arts and training organisations.
Recently much of her work has been through Creative Partnerships (www.creative-partnerships.com), developing programmes with schools that explore creative ways of delivering the curriculum.
Gillian also undertakes projects where the participants make or contribute towards finished works that are often exhibited and/or permanently sited.
If you would like to know more about how these projects can take place please contact her.
