Regional Voices
Prioritising the Global Majority voices of the South West.
Regional Voices offers two key elements. A space for regional voices of the Global majority to come together and strengthen their community of people wanting to connect and celebrate their heritage. Beyond Face offers a space for storytelling, skill development and community to connect and experience the arts without needing to feel that you have to be an ‘artist’ or have experience to do so.
The second element is about wellbeing and care, across all areas of our work we centre care and wellbeing at the heart of what we do. This of course is ongoing and we are constantly learning more ways in which we can embed this practice. We will be launching an empowerment and confidence programme to support regional voices in the arts who may have been impacted by bad practice, feel that the arts isnt for them or struggle to keep motivated to stay engaging in their arts practice.
We will be working with a range of practitioners to offer sessions and development around what it means to be and thrive as a global majority artist in the region.

Thank you to the Paul Hamlyn Foundation for funding our Regional Voices programme over three years.
