People Dancing is funded by Legacy Trust UK, Arts Council England West Midlands and Advantage West Midlands
Who is it aimed at and how can I get involved?
The programme is aimed at getting people across the West Midlands moving for themselves and inspiring people of all ages, skills and abilities to make dance part of their everyday lives.
Funded by Legacy Trust UK, Arts Council England West Midlands and Advantage West Midlands People Dancing is looking to commission a broad and diverse range of dance and dance related activity across the region, and we are asking organisations or collectives of individuals with strong links to their community to use their creative ideas and energy to develop innovative approaches to extending opportunities to more people.
Our first deadline for submissions has now passed and we will be announcing those successful projects and launching the programme to the public later this year. But we are still looking for a mix of large, high impact projects designed specifically to respond to local needs. Engaging young people in the design and development of the activities is an integral part of the programme.
The programme runs for three years and each year, we will have two rounds of comissioning bids.
The remaining deadlines for submitting your bids are:
