Create @ Alt Valley
Our organisation is passionate about addressing cultural inequalities and ensuring that communities have equal access to quality arts provision.
We are currently re-designing our cultural offer in line with the recommendations outlined in the 2015 Warwick Commission Report: Enriching Britain: Culture, Creativity and Growth.
According to AVCT’s Creative Development Manager Paula Currie: "….While Liverpool is a city with a strong cultural offer, many of these activities are based in the city centre and include additional barriers to marginalised communities"
Co-Create @ AVCT seeks to embed arts and culture in the heart of Liverpool’s most marginalised and socio-economically deprived areas
Our inclusive programme of free arts activities brings different sections of the community together to support mental health and wellbeing and strengthen community cohesion. We offer a range of opportunities for the community to access arts and culture including:
Musical Outreach programmes:
- Youth music Outreach We deliver free weekly music sessions for Our Lady and St Swithin’s Primary School
​
- Music Outreach for Young people with ASD We deliver free music sessions for young people from the ARC centre
​
- Music outreach for Adults with Additional Needs: We provide weekly samba drumming sessions for adults from Croxteth’s Life Skills Hub
​
- Community Music Outreach: Our popular inclusive, Love Music weekly sessions are attended by All sections of the local community.
