Humourisk draws together the talents and skills of under-represented communities and artists to create community powered, theatre, performance and public art. Humourisk also designs applied arts training programmes, aimed at engaging young people and adults who respond to in-formal learning environments, connecting through arts, crafts and trades.
The Humourisk team of artists and community practitioners create a bespoke street-based engagement process for each project, ensuring wide and diverse participation of residents who do not traditionally engage with projects or services.
Humourisk builds safe creative and learning environments, focusing on mutual learning with humour, recognising individuality and commonality, informal and formal knowledge and skills, challenging stigma, always starting where people are at.

​
5 Principles that informs its work:
1. Peer Support
We create a safe supportive space to empower individual and collective creativity
​
2. Creative Dialogue
We value the equal exchange of ideas to connect communities to their creativity and inspire our artistic practice
​
3. Humour
Our work values the power of humour to reach new audiences and highlight our individuality and commonality
​
4. Starting where people are at
We recognise the diverse experiences and knowledge of the communities and participants we work with, and the value this brings to our work
​
5. Creative Risks
We encourage creative and artistic risks to find new ways of seeing, to challenge stigma and inequality
