What is the Studio of Sanctuary?
The Art House is the UK’s first Studio of Sanctuary. We welcome everyone to take part in the Studio of Sanctuary, which has two projects:
1. Helping refugees and asylum seekers who are professional artists to start making work and build a career in the UK
2. Running art workshops for refugees, asylum seekers and people from Wakefield. You do not have to be an artist – this is a place where you can learn skills and meet someone new. There are workshops for adults and children.
