My aim is to share news and inspire conversation about the future development of The Mighty Creatives. I hope this will be interesting and valuable to the many adults, children and young people we work with across the East Midlands.
Before I go further, a big thank you for all of your support in helping to establish TMC. Our name was chosen to reflect the creative energy of everyone we work with: the first 15 months of business have really demonstrated the power and imagination of our many partnerships.
As we move forward, it is important that we share and develop support for a vibrant vision for TMC and the programmes and partnerships we champion. We started this work last year with the publication of Lift Off! – our open discussion document about the future. If you haven’t read this, please do and share your thoughts back with me. I would love to hear your thoughts.
In 2010, we have been working on our new business model and have started to populate this with ideas from our many partnerships. We hope this will create a platform for a stable and strong future. I will keep you updated here about progress with its development and the new ideas and opportunities that are created along the way.
Finally for this first post, I will also use this blog to keep you informed of progress with our funded programmes: Creative Partnerships; Ignition; MLA Strategic Commissioning; 2009-12 Journals Project. Many of you will be aware that the Find Your Talent project has been curtailed. We remain a passionate advocate for the project’s many achievements and its important role in changing the way young people access culture by putting them in the driving seat. We are working with the Find Your Talent Leicester Shire team and our partners in Leicester City and Leicestershire County Councils to make sure there is a strong legacy for this amazing project. Watch this space...
Best wishes,
Richard Clark
