Welcome
Nottingham is known as a creative city, with 50% of the population aged under 30. There are loads of ways to connect with the arts sector and make things happen within your own community – but if you’re not sure where to start, or are looking for something new to do, we hope this website provides a starting point to help you discover ways to get involved and be supported in your creative journey. If you’re looking to get your own ideas off the ground, we hope to connect you with people that can help.
The Connecting Notts Youth Board organises a Young Creatives Network; sharing what’s happening around the city and connecting us all to help make Nottingham the place we want it to be.
Creating and sharing opportunities…
Connecting Notts organises a young creatives network in Nottingham with opportunities for artists, performers, writers and musicians involved in arts organisations and community groups across the city to come together and share experiences. We aim to increase opportunities for all young people (aged 14-25) to connect, collaborate and create. We influence arts programming and amplify youth voices through our work with ChalleNGe Nottingham and the organisations we represent.
New members are always welcome to come to a meeting, and decide whether you’d like to commit to join our monthly sessions. Contact [email protected] to find out more.
