Community Arts

Our Community Arts programme offers an inspiring menu of creative opportunities to everyone regardless of age, background, health, or personal characteristics. Whether delivered indoors, outdoors, or online, our sessions encourage people to creatively explore, understand, and transform who they are and where they live. Activities can embrace art, craft, music, singing, writing, film, photography, digital media, cooking, exhibitions, performance, and more, but always aim to be inclusive, accessible, and celebratory. Whilst work is mainly focused on the rural communities of Bentham and North Craven, it increasingly involves activity further afield in Craven, North Yorkshire and beyond, and is regularly delivered in collaboration with a range of community, cultural, and Creative Health partners.
