This clip from the weekly Express Yourself Café meetup captures some of the members’ creative activities. During one session, Helen creates a highly detailed portrait of two people at a table. The muted colours and distinctive style make for a striking piece of work. Express Yourself Café is a creative community of adults with learning disabilities. The group’s aim is to express themselves by using art, and to foster social connections and friendships.
