Open Frame

Bringing Talents Together

Open Frame is a vibrant and inclusive arts event dedicated to celebrating the creativity, talent, and unique perspectives of disabled artists. This event creates a welcoming space where individuals of all abilities can showcase their work, connect with others, and be recognised for their artistic excellence.

At its heart, Open Frame is about breaking barriers and broadening perspectives. It highlights the power of artistic expression across visual arts, music, performance, writing, and multimedia, while fostering collaboration and community. The event challenges outdated narratives by focusing not on limitations, but on innovation, skill, and creative voice.
