About Colours of Redbridge:
Colours of Redbridge is a programme of community-led arts and culture in the borough of Redbridge. It is part of Creative People and Places (CPP), a national programme from Arts Council England, empowering local people to decide what culture happens in their area.
Culture drives stronger, cohesive communities, and we aim to amplify under-represented voices, building a healthier, happier borough while addressing key challenges like the cost of living, health, and skills development. As part of our role, we want to bring together different cultural and creative organisations in the area so that everyone has access to high quality arts and culture.
