DreamArts expose and develop the raw talents of young people in Westminster and surrounding boroughs.  Described as one of London's leading youth arts companies, past successes include new Hip-Hop musicals created by young people, while past illumni include Keisha White.

In 1989, out of a tiny studio in Pimlico Youth Project, Liz York initiated a youth arts project that grew to shapethe lives of hundreds of young people. In 1997 this work led to the foundation of DreamArts.

DreamArts produce dynamic arts projects for young people living or studying across Westminster.

DreamArts is committed to expose and develop the talents of 5-25 year olds through a range of projects that blend fun with high artistic standards and personal development.

AbbeyArts is the South Westminster unit of DreamArts, dedicated to working with children and young people aged 5-25 years.

All our projects aim to be based on informal education, and our work was singled out as best practice by OFSTED in terms of quality of provision and educational achievement attained.

Young people are involved at every level of our work, and over 150 members have received Assessment Qualification Alliance awards for their achievements.
