Lincoln Arts Centre appeals to give 1,000 local children free access to the arts this Autumn

Lincoln Arts Centre is calling on the public to help 1,000 children experience live arts for free this Autumn and for a limited time, every donation will be doubled. A local charitable foundation will match donations up to £5,000, instantly doubling the impact of every gift.

Part of the University of Lincoln, the Arts Centre’s Every Child initiative is at the heart of its Art of Becoming season, which celebrates transformation and creativity for young people. Nearly half of the Autumn programme is designed for families and young audiences, reinforcing Lincoln Arts Centre’s role as a cultural home for the next generation. 

Ben Anderson, Artistic Director at Lincoln Arts Centre, said:
“Every child deserves the chance to experience the magic of live performance. This campaign removes barriers and opens space for imagination, self-expression, and joy. With your support, and while the match funding lasts, we can reach more young people than ever.” 

Donate today via the ‘Support Us’ page on the Lincoln Arts Centre website. Schools can also contact the Centre to claim free tickets for pupils, with places available throughout the Autumn season.

Credence

This piece unravels the unrealistic expectations on what it means to be emerging artists trying to navigate the ever-growing ceiling of success and the persistent sense of “standing on the outside”. How does a young artist tackle self-inflicted othering, setting oneself lower to established artists, and overworking to avoid being “exposed”? The dancers use movement and body language to communicate shared efforts to overcome the restrictive thought patterns of self-doubt.
