About Lancaster Arts Partnership
Formed in 2009, the Lancaster Arts Partnership is a consortium of organisations working together to champion and promote the strategic development of excellent arts activities in Lancaster District.
The consortium's work is wide-ranging and developing quickly. We work with other arts and non-arts organisations in order to:
- offer a strategic vision for the arts in the Lancaster district;
- increase the profile and importance of arts in the district of Lancaster, regionally, nationally and internationally;
- initiate partnership, cross-art and cross-sectoral work that creates new opportunities;
- expand the collective knowledge-base and effectiveness of the arts sector.
We work particularly closely with Arts Council England, Lancaster BID, Lancashire County Council and Lancaster City Council, all of whom support and contribute to the Partnership.
