Beverley Cultural Network is a new voluntary working group, and its development has been funded by the UK government through the UK Shared Prosperity Fund.
We are in the process of producing an action plan that will help to raise the profile of cultural organisations, events and activities in Beverley.
Over the past six months East Riding Theatre has been the lead organisation in helping create this new network. Our ambitions are shared by a number of partners within Beverley from the private sector, digital, education, health and voluntary sectors, and this has a wider strategic reach.
Development of the Network is ongoing, and we hope to bring more opportunities to those who are interested in participating later this year.
