Making more of the arts for everyone
We believe that access to arts, culture and heritage is life enhancing. But because all our time is precious, encounters need to be meaningful – they need to be the best they can be. At MakeMore Arts, we work to enrich experiences at a grassroots, day to day level, delivering training and partnership-focused projects for biggest impact.

This fabulous community story creation project brought together 6 schools and hundreds of participants. Exploring the fantastical creatures of the region, through folklore and fossils, the project saw the creation of brand new artwork from children’s author Tim Hopgood, as well as dazzling supersized snake coiling along the corridor of Nunnington Hall, National Trust. Artwork was exhibited from over a hundred children as part of an exciting story creation exhibition enjoyed by over 20,000 visitors over the summer of 2022
