Festival Connect & Create: Creativity and culture for children, young people and their communities

Welcome! Festival Connect & Create is our programme of participation and engagement taking place across East Anglia: Norfolk, Suffolk, Cambridgeshire and Peterborough.

In three interlinked strands, we work with educators, artists, and young people in our Creative Leaders programme to improve the cultural offer for children and young people; we bring vital creative opportunities direct to some of the schools most in need of provision in our Creative Schools residency programme; and we take a very local approach – supporting artists and communities to work together in our Creative Places programme.

An element of this work is platformed each May as part of Norfolk & Norwich Festival, giving voice to local children, young people and their communities.

Arts make life better

Norfolk & Norwich Festival brings tens of thousands of people together in celebration – it has been doing this for 250 years. Through our May Festival and our year-round arts education work, focusing on children and young people, we lead and support celebration, creativity and curiosity in communities across Norfolk and the region.

This year we begin an exciting new initiative, Festival Connect & Create that will bring creative opportunities to those schools and communities with least provision. Creativity transforms people’s lives. It builds cohesive communities, develops vital skills and supports health and wellbeing. We want more people to have access to creative opportunities.

Please consider donating to support and develop this work. With your help we can increase access to the life changing power of the arts.
