At Alnmouth Arts Festival CIC, we are committed to promoting equality, diversity, and inclusion in all aspects of our festival. We believe that everyone should have the opportunity to participate in and enjoy the arts, regardless of their background or circumstances.
Our Commitment:
Inclusivity: We welcome and encourage participation from individuals of all ages, genders, ethnicities, sexual orientations, disabilities, and socio-economic backgrounds.
Access: We strive to make our festival accessible to all. This includes providing physical access to venues, offering free or low-cost events, and ensuring clear and inclusive communication.
Representation: We aim to showcase a diverse range of artists and performers, reflecting the rich diversity of our local community between the Tweed and the Tyne.
Community Engagement: We work closely with our local communities to understand their needs and ensure that our festival is relevant and inclusive with an annual consultation meeting. We encourage feedback and continually seek to improve our practices.
Equal Opportunities: We are an equal opportunities volunteer coordinator. We do not tolerate discrimination of any kind and are committed to creating a safe and welcoming environment for all volunteers and participants.
Our goal is to create an arts festival that everyone can enjoy and feel a part of. We believe that by embracing diversity and promoting equality, we can enrich our festival and create a more vibrant and inclusive community.
