Schools & Education | Norfolk & Norwich Festival

Festival Bridge believes that all children and young people should have the opportunity to experience and be inspired by great arts and culture both in and outside of the classroom as part of Arts Council England’s Cultural Education Challenge.

We can support all education settings to develop their arts and cultural programme, and to form sustainable relationships with arts and cultural organisations in our region through Artsmark, Arts Award and our Local Cultural Education Partnerships.

Our dedicated Education Managers Abi and Naomi can offer support and advice to schools and educators across our region.
