About us

Project Ability grew out of a year-long project held in Glasgow, in 1981, to mark the International Year of Disabled People, and was registered as a company limited by guarantee with charitable status in 1984.

For twenty years we have been generating opportunities for people to create art and to exhibit and share their work with the whole community.

Each week around 350 people of all ages are involved in our programmes.
