Rowan - Rowan enriches the lives of learning disabled people through creativity. Rowan is a Cambridge based arts centre and charity where learning-disabled people work with artists and craftspeople in five art studios. Students create beautiful artwork in textiles, wood, printmaking, mixed media and ceramics as commissions, for themselves and to exhibit.
