We're likely to be leaving this platform soon, but before we go - we're advertising for two great roles within our team and we'd love it if our followers could pass them to some great people! barrowfull.org.uk/join-us/ #artjobs #artsjobs #barrowinfurness #cpp

3 years, 143k creative engagements as Barrovians covered their professional football pitch in poetry; curated murals for their buildings & danced in their streets. Glad to be continuing beyond this year with @ace_national's 25/26 CPP extension year funding. #CreateYourPlace

Continuing rehearsals of the Barrow version of Sinfonia a collaboration with @BarrowFull and @theforumbarrow. We are working on an intimate version in a newly created pop-up theatre because the main house has some technical problems. I think this version will be so beautiful

On Monday, we're launching the biggest ever census of youth theatres in England. The 2024 Youth Theatre Census, commissioned by a brilliant group of NPO Youth Theatres and supported by some huge national orgs, will help us map every single youth theatre in the country.
