Redbridge Outdoor Inclusive Art Hub 2026

Free Community Art Workshops Inspired by Live Outdoor Performances

Experience the Redbridge Outdoor Inclusive Art Hub, a series of free creative workshops presented as part of the Redbridge Outdoor Arts Programme 2026.

Designed and delivered by artist and arts educator Eliyah Qureshi, the programme combines outdoor performance, visual arts and community participation to create engaging, inclusive creative experiences for people of all ages and abilities.

Each workshop is inspired by the professional outdoor performance taking place on the day and is led by Creative Ambassadors from Barkingside Art Club and Spectrum Studio. Participants are invited to explore themes, stories, movement and culture through hands-on art activities including drawing, printmaking, collage, painting and collaborative making.

Since 2019, the Outdoor Inclusive Art Hub has brought together children, young people, families and local communities across Redbridge, championing creativity, belonging, wellbeing and inclusion through high-quality participatory arts.
