My role at dot-art is to make it easy and enjoyable for people to make art part of their lives. Whether you’ve been tasked by your boss to source art for your office and don’t know where to start, you’re a building owner who wants your space to stand out from the crowd, or you’re a time poor teacher who desperately wants to fit art into an already packed school timetable, we can help!For Businesses:We know that in a crowded marketplace, you need your workplace and brand to stand out and be unique (93% of staff said art makes the workplace feel more welcoming) – art can help!We know you want to attract and retain the best staff, and that candidates value their work environment (78% of millennials see workplace quality as important when choosing an employer) – art can help!We understand you want your workforce to be as productive and motivated as possible (64% of people stated that art in the workplace inspired creativity) – art can help!We know the today’s employees want to be engaged, involved and purpose led – art can help!We also know that you want to give back to your local community – art can help!AND we completely understand that none of this is your area of expertise – so we will make the whole process simple, straightforward and even enjoyable!For Schools:We know you need to deliver a more broad and balanced curriculum, with no additional resources or time – dot-art Schools can help!We know that building the cultural capital of pupils is key, particularly in areas of high deprivation (students from low-income families who take part in arts activities at school are 3 times more likely to get a degree) – dot-art Schools can help!We understand that fitting art into the school day can be a struggle – dot-art Schools can help!We know there is a mental health crisis in our schools (in 2017, 98% of teachers came into contact with pupils they believed were experiencing mental health problems) – dot-art Schools can help!We understand the value of a creative education (the creative industries are worth £92 billion a year, provide 1 in 11 jobs and are growing at twice the rate of the economy as a whole. The World Economic Forum lists creativity as the third most in demand skill by employers in 2020.)We offer both off the shelf and tailored, artist led workshops in school and via Zoom, so you don’t have to spend time searching for and managing practitioners.We know that sometimes staff don’t have all they skills they would like to be able to share with students, so we also offer artist led CPD sessions.
