When Madeline Alterman started Artbox in Islington in 2011, she only had £300, a handful of volunteers and an idea – to support artists with learning disabilities and autism.
Now her organisation works with more than 90 artists each week, providing studio space, materials and tuition.
Some of their works have been exhibited, commissioned and sold, with artist Shruti designing the advent calendar for beauty brand Lush, and Seatton painting the cover art for Irish music artist CMAT’s second studio album, Crazymad, for Me.
Meanwhile, Richard’s painting called SHIP was featured in last month’s edition of the House and Garden magazine.
