Learning to Learn is one of UP Projects’ five core values and is imbedded across all aspects of our programme. We create opportunities for people to participate in the development of new commissions, working directly with the artists through workshops and artist-led activity, as well taking part in activities that expand the themes of the commission after it has launched. Through Learning to Learn we encourage an experiential, participatory, collaborative and non-hierarchical approach to learning.
We are committed to enabling more people to take advantage of opportunities to develop and express their creativity through participation, particularly those who may experience barriers to accessing and taking part in arts activities. We work collaboratively with a breadth of community groups including children and young people as well as develop opportunities for reflection and discussion among culturally engaged and specialist art audiences.
We believe that the public, artists, the UP team, our partners and collaborators all participate in the learning process. We monitor and evaluate our projects and the way that we work and incorporate this reflection and learning into the development of new projects, enabling us to develop new models for working collaboratively in the public realm.
