Connecting Notts, Nottingham's Youth Cultural Partnership
Youth Voice - 16-25 year olds
Connecting Notts is Nottingham’s Youth Cultural Partnership – a group of young artists, performers, writers, musicians and representatives from various arts organisations and community groups around the city. Members meet monthly (usually the last Monday of the month). Established by ChalleNGe in 2020, the group is open to new members throughout the year and is an inclusive network, helping ChalleNGe increase access to the arts for young people and influence decision making.
Representing...
Connecting Notts is delighted to have membership from the following organisations: Nottingham Music Hub, Backlit, Broadway, Freedom Foundation, Diversify Education and Communities CIC, Lakeside Arts, Ignite!, Nottingham Playhouse, Nottingham UNESCO City of Literature, Mad Truth, Surface Gallery and we have three individual freelance creative practitioners.
We hope to increase this membership, and every arts organisation in the city is welcome to nominate up to 2 young people to join the group. This year, we are opening up membership to sixth form representatives, developing a Connecting Notts Ambassador role for schools, sixth forms and colleges.
Opportunities...
. Connecting Notts have their own website aimed at 14-25 yr olds: www.connectingnotts.co.uk If you are interested in taking part, or would like to find out more on behalf of a friend, call Cathy on 07808 165209 for an informal chat, or complete this online application form to tell us why you'd like to get involved and a little more about your interests.
We believe the arts are for everyone and want to address barriers to access for all young people in the city. Join the young creatives mailing list to find out about events and opportunities.
