THE EXPLANATION

+ the Art Action Union has really only one simple purpose - to inspire! However we do it, wherever we can!

+ the Art Action Union is a project facilitated by a woman with a brain that won't stop worrying about stuff, creative as it is.

+ the Art Action Union is a non-financial body that is funded from a family budget, if you feel like contributing in a practical manner, you may wish to purchase some Merch or commission some art of your own. This will go towards costs for website hosting and getting around doing things like workshops and the odd media spot.

+ the Art Action Union likes to encourage healthy and positive debate about concerning topics, however - the opinions expressed are reserved individually - although we encourage open communication we do not tolerate hate-speech or anti-social behaviour.
