KWMC is an arts centre and charity and have been based in South Bristol – on the Knowle West estate – since 1996.

Since those early days, their work has centred on working collaboratively with people from different backgrounds to develop new and creative models for achieving positive social change – and supporting people to develop the skills and confidence to be change-makers themselves.

KWMC current projects' include skills training and employment opportunities for young people, supporting community organisations across Bristol in their work, and a diverse range of creative programmes exploring issues from housing to health.
