Inclusive Arts Project
Our Projects
We have had the privilege to work with many high quality arts organisations, to deliver collaborative projects to our guests. These inclusive arts sessions give our guests the opportunity to explore different modes of creative expression in more depth.
Under 18s sessions
Through the support of BBC Children in Need, the National Lottery and Community Foundation Wales, Two Rhythms has been able to provide services for children and young people on Saturdays twice a month.
Throughout the pandemic, these sessions continued to be provided virtually, via Zoom. Thanks to our funders, our young people were able to access fun, themed sessions, traditional Two Rhythms sessions and group parties on a drop-in basis.
Our sessions on Saturdays last between 30 – 45 minutes and are focused on boosting well-being and confidence in the young people who access our services.

Literature Wales x Two Rhythms
Two Rhythms ran a project in partnership with two poets from Literature Wales. During this project, guests had the opportunity to take part in a series of six sessions based around the weather as a focal point.
During the explorations of different weather types, our poets created work which reflects the energy, words, movements and feelings that our guests have had.
Digital Arts Project
Two Rhythms was commissioned by the Arts Council of Wales’ National Lottery Fund to run a Digital Community Arts project during summer/autumn 2020 in the middle of the Covid 19 pandemic. This project enabled us to reach out and support our community through artistic and creative engagement in a form of ‘playing one piece together’. The project was delivered around Pachelbel’s Canon as a starting point to experiment new and creative ways of connecting with others through different art modalities.
Through the Zoom meeting app and other tools, Two Rhythms Creative Facilitators engaged with the participants and their carers to reach out to our community as widely as possible. Coming from various fields in music, movement, dance and other forms of creative arts, they ensured that the sessions were created in a way that our participants had an enjoyable time sharing their stories, being creative, and having fun while keeping safe. All of our participants made significant contributions to the final piece, which can be viewed here.
