Creative Lives is mapping all the opportunities for people to experience and take part in creative cultural activities within Bridgend County

We are working with Bridgend County Borough Council and local artist Tracy Breathnach to improve our understanding all the formal and informal ways that people can engage in creativity throughout Bridgend.

These activities include music and singing, drama, dance, visual arts and crafts, poetry and creative writing, photography, film, digital creativity - any opportunities for creative expression.

In addition to arts organisations, we're particularly interested in informal and unconstituted creative groups and gatherings. Although hugely beneficial for individual and community wellbeing, much of this activity is under-funded and under-valued, so we’re trying to help surface and celebrate all the creative opportunities in the county.

We also want to hear from people who would like to take part in creative activities in Bridgend County.
