Please read these terms carefully before joining. Please note, some terms and conditions may not apply to your membership tier, however we will clarify the relevance to each membership tier. Defining terms used: Terms and Conditions – The paragraphs set out in these terms and conditions are the expectations and obligations of the organisation and the members. Organisation – This refers to Nirvanas Arts Collective CIC The Collective – This refers to the group of named disabled and neurodivergent artists that are a part of our memberships. These are the definitions of the memberships. Creative Space members - This refers to Creative Achiever and Creative Ambitionist tier members. "Community Membership": The baseline tier focused on resources, community, and mentoring. "Creative Achiever": The mid-tier level including group coaching, exclusive workshops and 1:1 mentoring. "Creative Ambitionist": The premium tier including group coaching, exclusive workshops and additional 1:1 mentoring. Member/s – Members are the individuals that are in the collective. Third Parties – Refers to anyone, business or group that is not defined and is not directly associated with the Collective, its members or the organisation. Intellectual Property (IP) – Any original artwork, text, images, or workshop materials created by either the Organisation or the Members. Our services The Collective aims to support the ambitions of our members through tiered memberships. The specifics are outline on our membership pages. This is to be used as an overview. You agree to the specific terms of your chosen tier as outlined below: Community Member: Includes access to the online content library, social sessions, online workshops, online community groups, and exclusive access to member-only price paid mentoring. Creative Achiever: A limited-space membership. Includes live Q&As/group coaching, monthly workshop/talk, mentoring and support to connect to opportunity. Creative Ambitionist: A limited-space membership. Includes live Q&As/group coaching, monthly workshop/talk, mentoring and support to connect to opportunity. Newsletter Because community online socials, workshops, events and opportunities are core components of your membership, you will be automatically enrolled in our internal Members' Newsletter upon registration. This newsletter is strictly operational. It is used to distribute links to live workshops, announce member-only socials, share opportunities, and provide important members' updates. We take data protection seriously. We will never sell or share your contact details with Third Parties, nor will we use this list to market external commercial products. If you choose to unsubscribe from these operational updates via the email footer, you acknowledge that you may miss vital event links and community announcements. Accessibility We understand the importance of accessibility and aim to embed this into all the services we provide. We work within the Equality Act (2010), and want all members to feel supported within our community. If you have any queries or feedback please message us; we understand the importance of learning and growing in-terms of the accessibility we provide. If you require materials in an alternative format or have specific access needs regarding our digital platforms, please contact us. Fees and billing Payment Schedule and auto-renewals: Community Members: The payment is billed yearly, your first payment will be taken upon signing up and then will reoccur every 12 months. Because of our automated website server settings, your Community Membership will automatically renew for a subsequent 12-month term upon expiry, and the annual fee will be billed to your card on file. Please note that our server platform does not send out automated email reminders before this renewal takes place. It is your responsibility to track your initial sign-up anniversary date. If you do not wish to renew, you must manually cancel your subscription through your member dashboard at any time before the renewal date. The Creative Space: The Creative Achiever and Creative Ambitionist tiers are high-value annual fees for 12-months of membership access and support. To ensure financial accessibility for disabled and neurodivergent artists, the organisation allows these annual fees to be spread across twelve equal monthly instalments. Unlike the community tier, The Creative Space tiers do not automatically roll over into a subsequent 12-month commitment. Because our intensive support is delivered as a structured annual curriculum, these memberships will expire on day 365 unless you actively choose to opt-in for another 12-months. Outstanding Arrears: If a payment remains unpaid for more than 30 days despite reminders, we reserve the right to formally terminate your membership contract and restrict future registrations. Price adjustments: We reserve the right to review and adjust our membership fees. We will provide you with at least 30 days' written notice via email of any price changes before your 12-month term expires. If you do not wish to renew your membership at the new price, you can cancel your membership. Low-Income Spaces: The Creative Space Availability & Waitlists: Low-income spaces are strictly limited to ensure the financial sustainability of the Organisation. For this reason, we cannot guarantee that a low-income space will be available for you to renew into for a consecutive 12-month term. The Rotation System: These spaces operate on a waitlist basis. If there are eligible individuals on the waitlist waiting to join when your 12-month term concludes, priority will be given to those who have not yet access-supported their practice through the programme. The Renewal Process: We will contact you 30 days before your 12-month term ends to discuss your options. If there is no waitlist, you may be permitted to renew your low-income space for another year. If there is a waitlist, we will gladly support your transition to a standard membership tier if your circumstances have changed, or add you to the low-income waitlist for a future cohort. Cancellation and cooling off period Statutory Cooling-Off: As your memberships is purchased online, you have a 14-day cooling-off period from your initial purchase date to cancel and receive a full refund, provided you have not accessed our used any services as part of the membership. This also applies to membership renewals. Digital Waiver: If you log into the platform and intentionally stream, download, or access our digital content library or live workshops within these first 14 days, you explicitly acknowledge that you lose your statutory right to a full refund. Early Cancellation: Because this is a fixed 12-month contract, you cannot cancel your membership early after the 14-day cooling-off period. If you wish to leave the membership before the 12 months expire, you remain legally liable to pay the remaining balance of the 12-month term. Notice Period: To prevent your membership from automatically renewing for a subsequent 12-month term, you can cancel your membership before the fixed term lapses, keeping access up until the date your membership would have renewed. You can cancel memberships using your member dashboard. For Creative Achievers and Creative Ambitionists, your membership is a 12-month fixed with no automatic renewal; you will need to sign-up again once your membership has lapsed. Exceptional Hardship Discretion: Nirvanas Arts Collective CIC understands that personal, health, or financial circumstances can change unexpectedly within the creative community. If you experience severe, unforeseen hardship during your 12-month term, please contact us directly. We reserve absolute discretion to review accounts individually and may, in exceptional circumstances, agree to alter or waive remaining instalment balances. Mentoring sessions The Creative Space members terms: Expiry of Hours: Mentoring hours must be used within your 12-month term, hours cannot be rolled over into the next membership year. Unused sessions are forfeited. It is the members responsibility to book mentoring. Cancellation Policy: You must provide at least 24 hours' notice to reschedule a 1-to-1 mentoring session. Sessions cancelled with less than 24 hours' notice or missed entirely ("no-shows"), will be forfeited and count as used. Community membership terms: Cancellation: If you cancel with less than 48 hours notice, no refunds will be made. Mentoring Packages: Mentoring packages purchased by Community Members are non-refundable and must be used within 12 months of the package purchase date. Low income slots: Low-income mentoring slots are offered on a trust basis to those who need financial accessibility. We do not require formal proof of income, but we ask members to respect the integrity of this system. Price Adjustments: We reserve the right to change our mentoring slot fees, including standard and low-income rates. However, any price changes will not affect current bookings and mentoring packages that have already been paid for. If you are a participant in the Creative Space, your costs are fully locked in and guaranteed not to change for 12 months from your joining date. Exemptions: We understand that life happens. We reserve the right to be more flexible with our mentoring booking and expiry rules where a member faces extenuating circumstances. However, please note that any flexibility is granted on a case-by-case basis and does not guarantee that the same leniency will be applied in the future. Workshops and events Scheduling: Live Q&As, group coaching, socials and workshops are scheduled at our discretion. While we aim to keep times consistent, we reserve the right to change dates/times/frequency with reasonable notice. No refunds are given for missed group sessions. We reserve the right to cancel any groups at any time. External or Special Events: Exhibitions, pop-ups, or events hosted by the organisation fall outside the scope of these standard membership terms. Whether these events are exclusive to members or open to the general public, they will be governed by their own specific terms and conditions.

Scope of the Channel : What it is for: Quick advice, clarifying questions from our last 1:1 session, mindset support, an accountability check-in, if you just need a hype person or immediate feedback on a specific choice (e.g., “Which of these photos look better to post?”).

Artwork selection We aim to showcase as many artists as possible without overcrowding the space. All decisions are final, unfortunately. If artwork arrives damaged, incorrectly framed or art work has significant discrepancies from the submission details, we hold the right to deny entry. This is because we curate our space assuming measurements are correct and Workshops If you are interested in running a workshop during the exhibition, please get in contact. We will advertise all workshops and we can process all payments, if the artists would prefer this. We charge £15 per hour workshop - this covers our set-up time, organisation and advertisement. This is payable by invoice. If you would like to run a collaborative workshop, this may be because you need additional support to deliver the workshop. All profits (once materials are accounted for) will be split 50/50. Prints and merchandise Any participating artists can sell any prints, cards, zines or merchandise. Please let us know if you plan to sell any of these. When we contact you regarding your acceptance into the exhibition, we will ask for further details, to ensure we have the space and resources. Depending on demand, we may not have space for all interested artists to be able to sell prints. Please note we will take 20% commission on these items, however there is no cost to displaying them at the exhibition. Additional support If you have a community membership, 1:1 support is available to book. You may choose to use this time to be supported to submit the application, or discuss any creative ideas you have, select artwork, develop your creative skills or anything else you feel would support you and your creativity. Please note this is a guide, artwork may not be displayed all together and will be more spaced out. This is for illustrative purposes for you to further understand how the fees work.

Your membership You don’t lack talent or ambition. You just need a professional, supportive environment designed to work with your health and builds long-term success Hi! I'm Elysian, the founder of Nirvanas Arts Collective, but please, call me Elle. You will be working with me! I'm a creative business mentor with a background in therapeutic art practices, support work and creative business ownership. I blend my knowledge of holistic wellbeing frameworks with my understanding of business strategy and my lived experience to create mentoring frameworks that support disabled and neurodivergent creatives to develop successful, sustainable businesses and careers. I started my first creative business at 16. I have exhibited, sold art online, and even ran a physical shop. But doing it all alone led to severe burnout.

We completely understand that everyone has a different budget. We have purposefully priced our membership tiers below the industry standard because our ultimate mission is to help disabled and neurodivergent artists succeed and thrive. Given the extensive business support, private mentoring, group sessions and direct admin support to get you connected in your creative niche, this program provides immense value for money. However, if the Creative Space memberships don't fit your current budget, our Community Membership offers a fantastic, highly accessible alternative so you can still stay connected and supported. You can find out more information here. What type of creatives in The Creative Space for? This programme is for many different people with creative practices and businesses. As some examples, artists, muralists, illustrators, designers, writers and photographers. When will I see a difference? There is no single timeframe because every artist’s journey is completely unique. Some members experience a shift after their very first session, while others notice around month 2 or 3. Your progress depends entirely on your personal capacity, how you apply the learning, and the time you are sustainably able to dedicate to your practice. What we can guarantee is that by month 12, you will have experienced a substantial shift in both your business foundations and your mindset, setting you on the right path for long-term success. I'm worried my health may limit my ability to participate. We get it! This is a 12-month programme which requires commitment. However, our programme is about meeting you where you are at, not forcing you into a programme that doesn't work for you and your needs. We offer flexibility and adaptability within the programme and will discuss with you how to support you best. What stage should my business be at? There is no stage of business you need to be at. You could have had a creative business for 2 years, 10 years or none at all. Due to the personalised nature of the programme, and the adaptable structure, our monthly memberships are tailored to the individuals we work with. How much time will this programme take up? Whilst we have set sessions and mentoring hours included in your membership, there is no definitive time this programme takes up. This is because it will depend on what groups you want join or re-watch, how much mentoring time you have and your capacity to engage in tasks in-between sessions. At your first free strategy meeting, we will tailor a support plan that works for you, your time and energy. How much do I have to participate? As much or little as you like. This is a no-pressure environment. You can turn up how you are, cameras on or off, use the chat function or take up as much space as you need to. Our environment is supportive and your comfortability is our priority. Still have an unanswered question? Contact us Want to confirm this is the right investment for you? Book your free discovery call! Contact us Your 1:1 mentoring and group sessions are recorded and breaks will always be accommodated. Missed the group Q&A but have a burning question? Ask it in the community group or through our private messaging channel if you have access to this. Creative ambitionists can request a weekly accountability check-in via whatsapp. A phone call or teams video works for me! Don't want to have your camera on? No problem! I will discuss with you how we can adapt our service to ensure accessibility is prioritised throughout your journey. We commit to providing accessible support that works for your needs. This is some of the ways we can support you Book your space! Our next intake will be Autumn 2026. There are limited spaces available. Spaces are reserved on a first come, first serve basis.

Discover our story as a disability-led arts organisation. Learn about our social mission and how we are redefining creative careers for disabled and neurodivergent artists. About us Our founder's story Hi! I’m Elysian (Elle) Fyre, the founder and Managing Director of Nirvanas Arts Collective. As an artist who is chronically ill and autistic, I know firsthand how isolating the creative world can be. I spent years navigating severe ill health while trying to maintain my practice, which exposed massive gaps in the creative industry for neurodivergent and disabled artists. I founded this disability-led collective to change that. I believe you shouldn't have to choose between managing your health and building a successful creative career that works for you, no matter where your health is at. Our community is designed to protect your energy, prevent burnout, and give you a safe, structured space to thrive on your own terms. Our values Our mission: Redefining creative careers At Nirvana's Arts Collective, our mission is to dismantle the barriers facing neurodivergent and disabled artists. We bridge the gap between creative skill, sustainable business development, and genuine community. We look at your business through both a personal and professional lens. We believe disabled artists deserve the opportunity to expand their financial and occupational independence while fully nurturing their physical, emotional, and social well-being. Through our tailored membership tiers, we offer plain-English business resources, live accountability sessions, and 1:1 strategic mentoring designed to meet your specific pacing and access needs. We are here to help "hidden" artists bring their work to the forefront of the creative sector. We also provide creative community services in our local area and the surrounding towns and cities. Whilst our Collective operates online, we work with our local community through engaging and transformative projects designed with creative health in mind. How we work: Our social impact Based in Sheffield and operating UK-wide, Nirvanas Arts Collective is a non-profit organisation run by Elle and small team of disabled individuals. Because we operate as a social economy, 100% of our funds go right back into our community. We believe in the creation of a social economy where economic gain goes towards supporting the most marginalised communities. Your fees directly fund our projects and creates financially accessible memberships for those facing financial hardship. Meet the Team Founder & Managing Director Elysian (Elle) Fyre They/she Elysian Fyre is the founder and Managing Director of Nirvanas Arts Collective CIC and has lived experience of chronic illness, disability and neurodivergence. Elle lives with their wife in Sheffield, having moved from Derby, after completing an undergraduate degree in Creative Expressive Arts in Health and Wellbeing. Elle has always been creative, and in their teenage years took up hand embroidery as a way of coping with being housebound and their declining health. Elle is responsible for the everyday running of the organisation and aims to eradicate inequality and bring their passion of the arts to everything they do. Director Bri Holecza She/they Bri is a director of Nirvanas Arts Collective and has lived experience of chronic illness and disability. They are trained to a high level in their music studies and completed an undergraduate degree in Creative Expressive Arts in Health and Wellbeing at the University of Derby. She is passionate about the arts for health and wellbeing, particularly in the area of music to cope with the challenges of disability. Bri supports with the administrative duties and brings lots of ideas to achieve the future ambitions of the organisation. Director Joe Robbins He/him Joe is a director of Nirvanas Arts Collective, he has epilepsy and several other mental health conditions. He has a masters in cancer biology and an undergraduate in biomedical science but his true passion is helping disabled people reach their full potential. He can relate to a wider variety of neurodivergent people through having experience with genetic autism and ADHD. Joe supports with administrative duties and hopes to help the Collective achieve all it can in its future endeavours. Director Rosie Mayes She/her Rosie is a director at Nirvanas Art Collective and is passionate about helping to make creativity accessible for disabled and neurodivergent artists. Since sustaining a spinal cord injury in 2009, Rosie has been quadriplegic, and this journey has opened up a new appreciation of discovering creativity, despite physical limitations. She returned to university after her injury and has a degree in History. She loves art, music and writing, and supports people with disabilities to travel by working to create accessible holidays. Our values Equity We believe equality can only be achieved through equitable interventions and projects. Diversity We aim to represent the many communities and voices within the services we provide. Inclusion Inclusion should go beyond just eradicating the physical barriers that impact inclusion, but make individuals and communities feel fully included through considerations of all individual needs, the language used, and acceptance of identities and differing life experiences. Resistance In the face of exclusive and oppressive structures, NAC strives to resist social and political change that negatively impacts the health, wellbeing and identities of disabled individuals and marginalised cultures and identities. NAC believes positive, beneficial change will only come about if communities resist and object to negative change. Accountability NAC strives to continually reflect on the actions and behaviours of those that operate within NAC that may harm or have a negative impact on individuals, communities and the environment. Through this we show that we value marginalised voices within oppressive structures. Social Economy We believe in creating a social economy that uplifts marginalised groups and supports sustainable economic development which creates real world positive impact to disadvantaged groups. Individualism NAC aims to see staff, directors, volunteers and individuals that use NAC services as individuals with their own perspectives, experiences, identities, cultures and communities. Co-production Those with lived experience are experts in their own experience. Those with lived experience should be centered in the decisions NAC make as they bring invaluable ideas and contributions to the direction of services.

Diversity and inclusivity is at the heart of nirvanas arts collective. Find out more about what we stand for. Diversity, Equality and Inclusion Statement Nirvanas Arts Collective has been built on the foundational belief that every person deserves equitable access to support, community services and the arts industry. We understand that the arts are a powerful tool for social and political change by uplifting the voices of marginalised individuals to be heard, challenging stereotypes and fostering understanding amongst communities. Nirvanas Arts Collective is but a small part in a wider socio-political movement to improve access to many spaces that non-disabled individuals often have the unknown privilege of accessing. We strive to support disabled artists in any way we can, and we will not ignore the importance of intersectional identities and experiences, and how this contributes to creative expression. We acknowledge the ways these identities can come up against social barriers within creative spaces that can create further marginalisation. We strive to be an anti-oppressive organisation who holds ourselves accountable to maintain the integrity of the organisation's morals and beliefs, and show this through all aspects of our mission; we do not tolerate discrimination or hate within our organisation. Throughout our work, we promote the understanding and respect of everyone regardless of their gender, religion, disability or culture, and we actively celebrate our multi-cultural society. We want to break social barriers for all minorities to ensure everyone has equal access to arts opportunities and community services. We feel that everyone's fullest potential is only reached when they live as their most authentic self and we are committed to co-create a space with our members where all identities are accepted and celebrated.

I'm Elysian (Elle) the founder and Managing Director of Nirvanas Arts Collective, and the face you will see the most of. I first started my creative business at 16. I have exhibited, sold online, and even ran a physical shop. But doing it all alone led to severe burnout.

Everything changed when I built a business strategy tailored to my capacity and worked with my neurodiversity. Today, The Collective is here to help you bypass the toxic hustle culture, find community, and design a creative path that protects your health whilst developing your creative practice and achieving your artistic goals.
