Art without discovery moves nobody.
A social enterprise working to improve access to the arts, culture and heritage through audience insight and cultural engagement.
Supporting Innovative People and Projects
We help people choose, create, or take part in bold and brilliant arts experiences.
We champion bold creativity and original thinking. We stand beside creatives with daring ideas and unique perspectives. We nurture audiences’ self-expression, amplify their voices, and make space for them to lead. We’re passionate about sparking dialogue and challenging convention, bringing energy, honesty, and purpose to every collaboration.
Widening cultural access and democratising the arts
The arts must remain a force for public good.
We embrace change as a catalyst for creativity and connection. Our work is driven by a commitment to inclusivity and a belief that the arts belong to everyone. By opening up space for participation and expression, we help dismantle barriers and build a cultural landscape where all voices are heard and valued.
Advising on cultural audience engagement and securing funding
We work for those who most require the help; tackling industry gate-keeping and discriminatory practices to amplify voices.
As thoughtful collaborators, we listen closely, support wholeheartedly, and help turn creative vision into momentum. With a bold and purposeful approach, we work with people and organisations to grow their reach, deepen audience connection, and bring ambitious cultural projects to life.
