About Us

Studio ARTES provides support to adults with a disability through creative arts and life skill programs.

A true community within a community, Studio ARTES is a place where adults with a disability can be supported to set goals, and reach beyond those targets. A place where our members can learn to read, write, and cook, as well as create and develop artistic practices in visual and performing arts. We offer members and families help to navigate a changing context of funding and support, keeping the Studio ARTES values of inclusion, equity, and respect engrained in a culture of acceptance and endless possibilities.

Studio ARTES was established in 2000, and is based in Sydney Australia. We currently provide services to over 250 people with a disability all over NSW. We provide services to adults over the age of 18, living with mild to moderate intellectual disability, autism spectrum disorders, mild to moderate physical disabilities, down syndrome, amongst others. We offer group and 1on1 support in centre based programs, group events, and community access from our studios in Hornsby and Sydenham.

Visit our Program page to find out more about our creative programs and extension opportunities within Visual Arts, Performing Arts, and Life Skills.

Our sister company, Studio A, is a supported art studio for artists with an intellectual disability who have a career pathway in visual arts.
