Partnerships
Strategic partnerships are central to our working practice. We have worked extensively with North Yorkshire County Council, Lancashire County Council, District Councils, National Parks, Museums and Heritage organisations, Universities and with other arts and environmental professionals both within the UK and internationally.
Our international work has led to the development of strong links with rurally based partners in Finland, Sweden, Ireland and other parts of Europe. We continue to build on these relationships to benefit both individual artists and the wider sector.
We believe that by working together, we can achieve more for both audiences and artists in constructive and exciting ways. While we’re firmly rooted in our rural setting in North Yorkshire, we are open to extending the reach of our work more widely through partnerships and other forms of collaboration.
If you’d like to discuss possible partnerships with us, please don’t hesitate to get in touch.
We have worked a great deal with North Yorkshire County Council on a diverse variety of projects and sector development initiatives. Our past programme includes ‘Unfolding Origins’, an artist in residence project based on a collaboration with North Yorkshire County Records Office. Other recent projects involved collaborations with Libraries across North Yorkshire, Lancashire and further afield.
We have an ongoing partnership with York St John University offering emerging artists professional development training, live project opportunities and graduate awards.
Our international collaborations include joint touring exhibitions, artist exchanges and opportunities to share knowledge of professional practice. We have worked extensively with artists and arts organisations in Sweden, Finland and Ireland.
We work with a wide range of community venues and organisations, including in rural locations across North Yorkshire, in order to engage with diverse and isolated audiences.
