Allow me to introduce Branch Out Arts

Sarah set up Branch Out Arts in an attempt to inspire young minds (and ignite *not literally* older ones) through creativity.

Branch Out Arts aims to promote (and eventually produce) educational, inspirational, but most of all fun arts events and activities that offer everyone, but particularly young people, the opportunity to discover and enjoy the arts as audiences, as learners and as creators.

Based in a quiet corner of Hambleton in North Yorkshire, Branch Out Arts us based upon the strong belief that children and young people everywhere should have access to great arts and culture, and as such is setting out to spread the word about exciting arts activities taking place locally, regionally and nationally in a bid to ignite imaginations and inspire happy, healthy, exciting futures through high quality artistic pursuit.

Having been inspired by an arts centre that Sarah attended as a child she’s spent her career to date working in the arts, mainly on public engagement programmes for galleries, museums, arts centres, theatre companies and festivals. Bitten by a really exciting bug that has made her passionate about access to the arts for all, and highly aware of the joy that art can bring to people of all ages in addition to the horizon-shifting memorable experiences and valuable life skills that can be acquired through creative learning and engagement.
