Welcome to Arc

Arc works with people who are experiencing emotional or psychological distress to

explore the arts

feel included

recognise their true potential

find hope of a new beginning, and

move on with confidence to achieve their life goals.

Arc's centre in South Reddish incorporates art & design studios and a community gallery. Arc's extensive range of services also includes an outreach agency and a graphic design service.

In Arc's vision of a socially cohesive society, creativity and well being go hand in hand and the arts are available to all.
