"12" explores addiction, recovery, and the possibility of a hopeful future.
A visual art exhibition that has played a transformative role in community recovery will feature at Electric Picnic.
12, which explores the realities of addiction, the journey of recovery, and the possibility of hope, has been selected for inclusion in the arts programme at Electric Picnic 2026, following its impact in inspiring the creation of a volunteer-led recovery organisation.
Emerging from conversations at 12, the ARC Project was founded and is dedicated to complementing existing services by connecting people with support, education, and one another.
Co-founder David Delaney says their programmes centre around human connection and rebuilding lives:
