Kate Adams

Kate Adams MBE is an artist, advocate and activist. She has initiated and curated many responsive, collaborative projects with people who have complex support needs, families, caregivers, artists and galleries. Kate co-founded Project Art Works (NPO) in 2000 to explore an expanded concept of art and, in her own practice, the unknowability of nonspeaking experience.

Project Art Works has evolved into a national and international leader in collaborative creative practice. They raise awareness about neurodivergence and the interdependencies of people who have complex support needs, caregivers, art and social care systems that both enable and disable full participation in life, community and culture. Project Art Works has become a vital point of connection and contact for many people and organisations. They develop and promote new ways of thinking about agency, ethics and praxis that challenge paradigms of inclusion in all ways. https://projectartworks.org/
