We are dedicated to making the excitement of creating works of art available to everyone of all ages and abilities, through the provision of quality art projects that are memorable, enjoyable and stimulating. We believe that the arts have a significant part to play in the life of communities and helps build confidence and inspire a sense of creative well being, encouraging cultural and creative ac
tivity. This is implemented through devising a range of high quality hands on workshops and training that enable and support the development of creative thinking skills, accessing people's ideas and mobilising the imagination through a wide variety of media and art forms. We take visual art materials and equipment to a wide range of settings that include schools, community centres, youth clubs, institutions, care homes and public events and provide large and small scale projects that range from printing, painting, mixed media, theatre, animation, fashion, 3D sculpture and applied crafts. Genevieve who is originally from Omagh Co.Tyrone, has a B.A. Hons Degree in Theatre Design from Nottingham University.c
On graduating from college she moved to London to take the position of head of the Art and Design Dept. at Cosprops, creating costumes, sets and props for the television and Film Industry, an influence she continually brings to her work to today. It was here that she met her future husband Jon an artist who was working for Spitting image productions and together they relocated to Northern Ireland and set up and established Genevieve Jon designs. " The careful consideration of design, detail and presentation ensures the high quality and individuality of our work. ''
Along with our workshop programmes and community art projects we enjoy designing and creating individual pieces of art and sculpture taking on a range of commissions from 3D sculpture, paintings, props, applied crafts and also offer a creative design service. We have collaborated with both the public and private sectors and have previously received awards for our work including 'Year of the Artist'
