Our aim is that all children and young people in the region can access and enjoy a rich and meaningful arts and cultural life.We believe that meaningful engagement with the arts and culture contributes to a thriving childhood and impacts on learning, achievement, attainment, wellbeing, health, creativity, career options, progression into higher education and wider benefits to participating in society. Our purpose is to improve opportunities for children and young people aged 0 – 19 to access, engage in and connect with high quality arts and cultural activity.We run a variety of programmes across the region, and champion Artsmark and Arts Award.

Arts Connect

Designed to inspire and inform the arts and cultural sector

Midlands Arts Centre

Arts Connect’s Thrive sharing events are designed to inspire and inform the arts and cultural sector. The sharing event will explore a number of areas from mental health, barriers to engagement and creative technology.

Each Thrive R&D bursary recipient will share their research and development Journey encapsulating and disseminating the learning from the Thrive R&D programme. 

Research questions include:

BAME groups take part and engage with arts in significantly lower numbers therefore, what prevents BAME young people from taking part in film &amp; culture and what can be done to assist this engagement? 

Can a new application of traditional arts and crafts have a genuine and positive impact on the mental health of young adults; and whether the use of random acts of kindness/ benevolence can be instrumental in levels of engagement.

How can we use projection mapping technology in our education and performance work to create interactive digital environments that allow genuine creative responses from the participants and audiences we work with?
