About Dartmoor Arts Project
Dartmoor Art Project is an artist-led organisation founded in 2006. We host a busy summer school week as well as a year round programme of events and artists' talks, bringing excellent speakers to a rural part of the south west. We have set up a place where artists can come and learn new skills, further their ideas and join in lively critical debate.

About Dartmoor Arts Summer School 28 July to 3 August 2013
Dartmoor Arts Summer School takes place in the village of Drewsteignton, just a few miles outside Exeter. Its a brilliant week of creative practice where over 100 artists come together plus a lively programme of talks by contemporary artists. 11 courses are on offer from Documentary film to stone carving.

2013 talks programme includes international performance artist Paul Granjon, Karolina Glusiec, winner of the 2012 Jerwood Drawing Prize, artist Andrzej Jackowski & Tim Britton from Forkbeard Fantasy.

During the week young, emerging and established artists have the space in which to explore their practice and realise the possibilities of their work in an dynamic, creative and supportive environment. The week is also about continual professional development, a space dedicated completely to making your own work. It is also about the opening up of opportunities for younger artists - many who have gone on to do amazing projects and exhibitions, inspired by the week, by our tutors, the artists they have met and the contacts they have made. Artist/educators take new skills away with them which they then share with their own students.

What makes our summer school unique is its relaxed, intimate scale where students have a chance to talk with leading artists, thinkers and writers on a one-to-one basis about their thoughts and ideas. The atmosphere is brilliant as artists work hard on their projects culminating in a productive end of week 'crit' and a tour of the other venues to see the work made by other students.
