Camphill Community Clanabogan: ‘Just Us’

Camphill Community Clanabogan, is holding an exhibition in the Strule Arts centre in Omagh for the month of August. Camphill Community Clanabogan is a shared living community for adults with learning disabilities and care and support needs,  where people live and work together, each person contributing meaningfully to the community in which they live.

There is a strong creative impulse within Camphill and to this end there are 4 creative workshops, the Weavery, Wood Workshop, Art workshop and Pottery. This exhibition features work from a diverse range of artists and creators within the Community, using a variety of media and traditional craft.

Each piece of work will ably represents its creator, the personality of each person imprinted on their piece. Within this variety of work there is a common binding theme, that is of belonging, of being part of, of being ‘Just Us’.

For within every one of us there is a creative being, an artistic force.  Art connects us all, regardless of perceived abilities; art and creativity binds us, challenges us, broadens and develops us. But most of all it connects us.

The exhibition is open from 9.30am to 5.30pm Monday to Saturday.
