Ignite: Dorset’s Cultural Children and Young People Network 

Dorset Music Service and The Arts Development Company are launching a new network to bring together teachers, educators and those interested in arts, heritage and cultural education for children and young people.

The group is open to everyone working or interested in cultural and creative education in Dorset, including teachers, freelance educators, outreach officers, teaching assistants and anyone pursuing or interesting in a creative education career.

The group is free to join and the meetings are open to everyone.

We hope that by bringing educators and creative practitioners together to share their stories, ideas and mutual passion for creativity, we can give a boost to the number of children and young people benefitting from high quality creative experiences both in and out of school.

If you are passionate about developing the creative sparks in your community, and would like connect with colleagues from across the cultural network in Dorset please let us know at: dorsetmusicservice@dorsetcouncil.gov.uk.
