Youthwise Programs

The Artwise Program

The arts in its broadest sense has been of equal, if not more importance in the Youth Charter's work over the last decade s an important vehicle of expression, the artistic appeal of engaging, motivating and inspiring social and cultural confidence within the young people and communities we have worked with has provided an invaluable number of interventions at all levels of youth social inclusion and community regeneration.

From the opening of the Agora multi-sports arena by English Actress Susan Hampshire OBE at the Procter Youth Centre in 1994, the Youth Charter has continued to build on and develop highly successful arts inclusion interventions.

The Salford Quays Graffiti Arts Project in 1996 was tremendous success providing a commissioned site and a unique public/private sector investment in the overall project that still sees Salford Quays untouched by graffiti or vandalism 10 years on.

Artwise Materials

With the launch of the Youthwise© Programme in 1997, our arts inclusion programmes have provided a balanced and holistic choice to young people who have little or no interest in sport. Artistic expression in the dramatic, written, spoken and expressed form have given young people choice and characteristics that through sport channel aggression, but with the arts provides an alternative expression and outlet to young people's energy and abilities.
