Community

Working in partnership with the BRIT school, Wetherby Arts will offer many educational, creative and cultural opportunities for residents both young and old. The school’s teaching and performance spaces will become available for the running of BRIT Kids community classes every Saturday.

Alpha Plus will also provide funding for some children to attend the BRIT Kids classes free of charge.

In collaboration with the BRIT School, Wetherby Arts School will also develop a bespoke Community Arts Practice qualification. Students will train in areas such as theatre in education, teaching, facilitation, movement, singing and acting and learn how to use the arts to explore a range of social topics; the course is practical, and students will work extensively with the local community as part of their studies.
