Collaborating with national and international art studios to develop and deliver projects conceived by their artists, organisation, and Jump Left.
Creatives
Professionals including curators, writers, and publishers, collaborate with artists and us on experimental and commercial initiatives.
Partners
Partners make a difference: they invest in art and culture, forming critical and enduring relationships that elevate artists and the arts.
"Jump Left is a niche enterprise transforming the arts into a more inclusive space. We expand opportunities for disabled, neurodivergent, and intellectually disabled artists, connecting them with peers, curators, galleries, and museums nationally and internationally. Through our project and curatorial hub, we co-create exhibitions that strengthen diverse voices in contemporary art."
