Messums Creative is the not-for-profit arm of Messums Org. Funded by the gallery and a distinguished circle of patrons, it works to connect people with the arts, providing education and inspiration to individuals and communities around the world through films, talks, events, workshops, residencies and outreach projects, curated to support artists and makers and make art and creative learning accessible to all.
"Art is the universal language of the possible, it has a voice in connoisseurship, aesthetics and appreciation. It also has a voice within community where the making process and the use of the hand is as vital to empathy as it is to expression. These two roles are intwined within the aspirations and outcomes of this gallery adapting to the present and future times." - Johnny Messum

Art in Education: Art as Language
The ability to connect with each other is at the core of empathy. Art and the language of the hand is just as much of a means of communication as the spoken or written word, and more than that is a universal language and therefore needs to be incorporated and protected as an essential part of learning.

Advancement of
education

It provides access to education for individuals and communities through workshops, interaction, films, discussions, residencies and outreach projects. It is supported by Messums and our impact partners.
