NPO Archive

As a National Portfolio Organisation (NPO) we receive regular funding from the Arts Council to build on our successful programme of cultural events for children and young people. We first became an NPO in 2018, and we are thrilled that we remain part of the National Portfolio in 2023-2026, receiving £504,599 of funding each year. Take a look at the events and activities below that we've programmed over the last 7 years in order to achieve our ambitious plans to:

create an exciting programme of arts and cultural activities and events for children, young people and their families

develop innovative cultural programmes for under 5s

deliver a range of arts activity accessible to young people with disabilities

develop and innovate dance and digital arts

create additional cultural opportunities in Nottinghamshire’s four Levelling up for Culture Places; Ashfield, Bassetlaw, Mansfield, Newark and Sherwood.
