HOOT from home
Being creative makes you feel good

HOOT from home offers accessible creative activities that you can take part in at home. We believe that the arts are for everyone, even if you don’t think of yourself as creative but we understand how daunting it can be to take part in a creative activity if you don’t feel that you are ‘good at it’ so each HOOT from home activity has been designed by a professional community artist/musician, with no need for specialised art materials or instruments. Discover how being creative makes you feel good.

Out of the Blue programme on HOOT from home

HOOT Creative Arts' Out of the Blue programme of creative activities for mental health & wellbeing is now available online.

HOOT from home is a secure online platform where people can:

> Take part in a creative activity each week, with instructions and inspiration provided by professional community artists & musicians

> Share their work by uploading to our online gallery

> Discuss their work with other participants through online forums

> Take part in regular live chats with our lead artists and creative support workers

Just like the usual Out of the Blue sessions that took place in Huddersfield and Dewsbury, these online sessions are completely free for people who are aged 18+, residents in Kirklees & looking to protect and/or maintain their mental health and wellbeing.

Activities include music, visual arts, digital music, creative writing and singing.

We believe that the arts are for everyone, even if you don’t think of yourself as creative but we understand how daunting it can be to take part in a creative activity if you don’t feel that you are ‘good at it’ so each activity has been designed by a professional community artist/musician, with no need for specialised art materials or instruments.
