‘Culture and Creativity for All’
Our vision is for everyone in rural communities to be entertained, inspired and supported by the arts, through access to high quality, thought-provoking and diverse live performance without barriers. We want to be part of a world where creativity is enjoyed by everyone.
Why Donate?
Valley Arts is a registered Charity that puts on over 100 events, shows, free workshops and a Youth Theatre every year for the local, rural community around the Chew and Yeo Valleys. We aim to make our events inclusive with flexible 'pay what you can' pricing, bursaries, and free workshops in local schools and village halls. By bringing people together to watch, participate and create, we support the wellbeing of our community to become happier, better connected and more fulfilled.
Valley Arts exists to inspire and delight audiences by delivering high quality live performance and participation in local spaces for the people of the Chew Valley.
We listen to and collaborate with local artists, audiences, volunteers, partners, venues and organisations – to bring a wide range of exciting creative events and opportunities to our amazing rural venues.
We aim to be a creative hub for the region, supporting people of all ages to take their next step in the arts – as audiences, participants or artists. We want to programme and co-create new work that is grounded in a sense of place and belonging, that inspires conversation and sparks ideas.
We are funded through ticket sales for many of our shows and grants from Arts Council England. However, in order to remain viable in the future we are also dependent on the generosity of our local supporters, either by donating through this page or becoming a Friend for Our Future. We are run by volunteers but also have a small dedicated paid team who organise, market and run our 100+ events. THANKYOU SO MUCH for helping keep Valley Arts alive and thriving!
