Yes!

The Greater London Enterprise has recognised my work and vision for teaching and sharing the benefits of art in the community. It has taken 9 years of hard work and persistence to build Art Stop into a solid and esteemed art community in Enfield.

ART STOP – INCLUSIVE COMMUNITY ART SCHOOL OF THE YEAR!

” Art Stop is an art school offering meaningful art experiences for children, teens and adults. It is run by Lisa Howes, an art specialist teacher passionate about art education and how engaging in the visual arts supports and enhances well being, confidence, healing and independence. Art Stop is more than just an art school that teaches art. It embraces people and nurtures them. It holds them and keeps them safe. Everyone is valued and important and it is a place where individuality can shine and people can be themselves.”
