"We bring you the pART of Pontypridd Art Trail 2024 taking place across the town centre of Pontypridd and Ynysangharad Park. With thanks to Pontypridd Town Council, Your Pontypridd Business Improvement District, Rhondda Cynon Taf County Borough Council & Website Sorted, we are delighted to be exhibiting a wealth of creative work this year, that you can visit in person or view online, by our latest students and soon to be graduates from the BA (Hons) Creative and Therapeutic Arts course at the University of South Wales, Treforest Campus. 

The students and course teaching team wanted to use this opportunity to honour and celebrate the wonderful relationships cultivated with venues, businesses and organisations across our town who have inspired the artwork that will be created. As the Community Artists, Participatory Artists and Socially Engaged Arts Practitioners of the future, the students will produce artwork that engages or is informed by the community of Pontypridd, or invites participation from the public once displayed. The exhibition will not only showcase their work as artists, but also demonstrate their passion for supporting our community’s wellbeing, their ability to form meaningful connections, in addition to theirs and the community’s resilience during challenging times.

 Students have been asked to consider accessibility and inclusivity at the heart of their practice, so exhibition website content can range from photographs, soundscapes, flip books and more, and creative access resources alongside the exhibits will be created!" (Pontypridd Town Council).
