Partnerships

Crying out Loud

We deeply believe in the transformative power of partnerships to create meaningful and sustainable change. Beginning in 2023, we've embarked on an innovative journey alongside our consortium partner, Crying Out Loud, a pioneering organisation based in the Solent region. Our shared values-placing artists at the forefront, fostering inclusive practices, and championing creative excellence-drive this collaboration.

Together, we are developing groundbreaking approaches to artistic leadership and the delivery of our National Portfolio Organisation (NPO) programme. Our consortium model prioritises artists' voices, ensuring their insights and creativity directly influence the structure and direction of our projects.

This partnership not only explores new models of leadership but also actively cultivates a robust ecology of international support. We focus on creating networks, exchanges, and resources that empower artists to excel and sustain their practice locally, nationally, and internationally.

By collaborating closely, we facilitate mutual learning, share expertise, and collectively contribute to a thriving and resilient cultural landscape.
