New Cultural Journeys is an ambitious youth led culture and sport
participation programme for Lancashire and the Fylde Coast that is
part of WE PLAY, the North West cultural legacy programme for the
London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games.
The theme of the programme is Routes and Trails, making new
connections between people and places, sport and arts and physical and
virtual worlds in the lead up to 2012.
Working with young producers from across the region, New Cultural Journeys is seeking to
commission 5 creative projects along the theme of Routes and Trails.
Ideas need to excite, surprise and engage residents
and visitors to Lancashire and the Fylde Coast, creating opportunities for
people of all ages to take part in voyages of discovery both outdoor and
online.
Fees for each commission are in the range of £5 -10K with the
opportunity of further future investment for the most successful and
innovative ideas.
Applications are invited from artists, designers, technologists,
creative and sporting organisations. Collaborative proposals that cross
fertilise creativity, technology, and sport are encouraged.
Regional, national and international applications are welcome.
