The Redbridge Arts Development and
Events team can provide support and advice to:
- community groups
- voluntary organisations
- schools or other agencies
- services working with or wanting to work with the arts or stage
their own events and festivals
Currently, we are working in partnership with the Forest Farm
Peace Garden who are organising an arts and
crafts day in October and previous grant aid has been provided
to:
Theatrical arts
The Kenneth More Theatre is one of Ilford's key assets, while
the Redbridge Drama
Centre in South Woodford gives people aged 21 and over, the
chance to join in a production themselves, such as in the
Redbridge Adult Theatre Workshops (
RATW
). Younger people
get a chance too, in the special children's theatre workshops
regularly organised by the centre.
Musical arts
School-age musicians are supported by the Redbridge
Music Service who organise concerts throughout the year
including at the Royal Albert Hall.
Publications
We have a cultural
strategy for the borough, a hard copy of which can be
requested by contacting Culture, Sport and
Community Learning Services.
