Hart Club is a London based community interest organisation dedicated to championing neurodiversity in the Arts. Hart Club initially started as a gallery to platform the work of artists that so often go unseen due to the exclusionary structures that shape the art world. The project quickly developed to extend far beyond this and now includes an online shop, creative workshop space and alternative arts education programme centring called Hart School. This programme is a radical re-imagining of what it means to nurture creativity and community in an educational setting. We support artists who are typically excluded from mainstream education due to financial barriers and lack of support for disabled artists. Our organisational aims are: - To champion neurodiversity in the Arts. - To forge working relationships between artists. - To build confidence, community and wellbeing. - To gain creative and financial recognition for artists - To encourage conversation around diversity and inclusion.

Never pay for PR again. πŸ‘‹ I’m Jess. This is not an agency, this is one person telling you that you can do your own PR, without an agency. I started this businesses in the middle of a pandemic, if I can do that you can learn how to do PR. Things need to change. The way we’ve always done PR is broken. Now is the time to stop spending thousands on freelancers and agencies. Learn the tools to pitch to journalists yourself. Be the industry expert they keep coming back to. Build lasting relationships. I don’t want to do your PR. I really don’t. I don’t want anyone to do your PR. I want you to do it yourself. Take control of your narrative and reap the rewards, and I’ll show you how to do it. I learnt how to do PR from scratch with no contacts and no budget. I did this for a tech startup, which I then got featured in the press (quite a bit, actually!) plus speaking at events to audiences of thousands, on podcasts and I even put words into Obama’s mouth. Yes, really. Slide into my DMs if you want to learn more or drop me an email at jessica@noagencymethod.com.
