Creative Arts East

Who we are

Creative Arts East is an arts and community development charity committed to bringing the very best arts and cultural activities to rural and/or under-engaged audiences across Norfolk, Suffolk and the wider eastern region. We aim to use the transformative power of the arts to fight rural and social isolation; increase enjoyment, skills, health and wellbeing; broaden horizons and ambitions; and make a positive difference to the lives of people living in rural communities.

We achieve this by helping people access and engage with high-quality arts experiences, including live performances, cinema screenings, creative workshops and training sessions.

We value: COLLABORATION – AMBITION – EVERYONE

Our Vision: Artistically vibrant, connected and healthy rural communities

Our Mission: To increase people’s enjoyment, skills and health through the power of the arts
