Arts Connect

Arts Connect is the Bridge programme for the West Midlands, funded by Arts Council England and run by the University of Wolverhampton in partnership with Culture Central. Our aim is that all children and young people in the region can access and enjoy a rich and meaningful arts and cultural life. We believe that meaningful engagement with the arts and culture contributes to a thriving childhood and impacts on learning, achievement, attainment, wellbeing, health, creativity, career options, progression into higher education and wider benefits to participating in society.
