Description: CAN has led the field in community arts since 1978 and is at the cutting edge of intercultural arts practice. We have particular expertise and interest in arts and migration.
Through exciting and high-quality creative projects with artists, communities and young people, CAN share powerful creative work; shining a light on new talent and fresh voices, and enriching Greater Manchester’s cultural landscape.
CAN’s work is firmly rooted in social justice and driven by ethical values:
We stand in solidarity with people at the sharp end of poverty and oppression, believing that everyone is creative, and through cultural expression people on the margins will have a voice and provoke change.
Co-creation and shared leadership are crucial for CAN to develop deep and lasting connections with communities, young people, artists, audiences and partners.
We champion equality and strive for diversity in the artists we work with, our staff and Board, and the organisations we choose to work with.
We welcome new migrant communities as collaborators and creative partners, and we are a home for emerging artists, especially those who are new to the UK.
