Welcome to the WheelWorks Website
WheelWorks is a youth arts organisation working with children and young people aged 4 – 25 who may not otherwise have access to high quality artistic activity. We work in partnership with all types of communities throughout Northern Ireland to provide taster workshops and issue based programmes which help young people learn new skills and express themselves through traditional and digital art.

WheelWorks has successfully secured 3 year funding from BBC Children in Need for the Multiple Realities Co-ordinator salary! We are excited about rolling out the Multiple Realities programme, which has been running for 9 years.
Multiple Realities is an ongoing arts led cultural development programme which encourages young people aged 7-18 from across Northern Ireland to explore their identity using new digital technologies as well as more traditional art forms.
Initially the programme aimed to work with young people from section 75 communities, which included young people of different sexual orientation, young people with a disability and young people from ethnic minority communities. Multiple Realities has evolved to include projects with rural based young people and young people who experience domestic violence. A particular focus for the Multiple Realities programme over the next few years will include working with disabled and BME groups.
All our thanks to Pudsey !!
