ArtsTrain secures ACE funding for 2023 to 2026 – #LetsCreate!

We’re incredibly excited to announce that we have secured our funding as an Arts Council England National Portfolio Organisation for 2023-2026.

In the next few years we’ll be developing and sharing new models of creative music education in Bromley and Bexley. We will work with hundreds of young people not engaged by formal music education and focus on participants creating their own new music, as we know the process is empowering and enables self-expression.

Our amazing Music Leaders will experiment with new genres and collaborations with local communities such as Virtual Schools, Secondary Schools, and charities. Our academies in Bromley and Bexley will continue to rehearse weekly and perform at events such as the EFG London Jazz Festival. We are excited to work in partnership with our regional music education hubs and many other organisations and agencies within the arts sector, music industry and community to make this happen.
