Diversity Forum for the Performing Arts

"ARTS ORGANISATIONS ARE FAILING YOUNG PEOPLE…”

What do we do to engage Somerset’s young people in Performing Arts? Is it enough? Would you like to ask young people what would work for them? At the next Diversity Forum event we will explore how we can help the next generation of theatre makers, dancers, performers and creatives.

For the Somerset Performing Arts Community

Join Yeovil College students and other young people for an afternoon of provocations to inspire, challenge and spark conversation about the challenges faced and barriers met when young people try to engage in Performing Arts in Somerset.

We’d value the thoughts of venue managers, programmers, theatre makers, performers… do join us.  And if you know of anyone, over the age of 16, who might be interested, please bring them along.  

About the Diversity Forum

Set up by Take Art, the Diversity Forum is a twice yearly event where people from the Somerset performing arts community can get together in a safe space. This gives us the opportunity to talk honestly about diversity and equality, challenge perceptions, share experiences and provoke individual and collective action.
