Art attack

Julie Penfold reports on Starburst Arts – a visual and performing arts initiative for people with learning disabilities who want to explore their creativity and engage with their local community through the arts: For Phillip Judd, art is a passion, and he enjoys creating works that can be seen in public. “It feels good that someone can see my work, I get more out of it and it makes me want to do more,” he says. Thanks to his participation in Starburst Arts, Judd now gets regular opportunities to have his work on display at exhibitions in his local area.
