Creative Leaders

Bringing creativity to schools and communities requires people.

At Norfolk & Norwich Festival we are nurturing Creative Leaders to help build the infrastructure for the future. From teachers and artists to the next generation of arts leaders – our young people, we provide networks, mentoring, professional development and bursaries to help support the region’s cultural infrastructure, bringing more creative opportunities to young people and communities across the region.  

 

 

 

Join our Networks

Our work covers three areas:

Creative Educators: Teachers and educators committed to creativity in schools.

Creativity transforms people’s lives, developing vital skills and building cohesive communities. We want more children and young people to have access to creative opportunities and, working with Creative Educators, we will develop a network of like-minded teachers to share opportunities, experiences and professional development opportunities.

Arts make life better

Norfolk & Norwich Festival brings tens of thousands of people together in celebration – it has been doing this for over 250 years. Through our May Festival and our year-round arts education work, focusing on children and young people, we lead and support celebration, creativity and curiosity in communities across Norfolk and the region.

This year we begin an exciting new initiative, Festival Connect & Create that will bring creative opportunities to those schools and communities with least provision. Creativity transforms people’s lives. It builds cohesive communities, develops vital skills and supports health and wellbeing. We want more people to have access to creative opportunities.

Please consider donating to support and develop this work. With your help we can increase access to the life changing power of the arts.
