Creating the conditions for creation

Just how welcoming a place is Coventry, actually, for someone wanting to make a career in the arts? Please read and comment on F13’s draft action plan.

We are a Coventry-based company of artists known for our gently provocative projects which explore, and seek to illuminate, the profound and complex relationships between people and place. We're big on access, human connection, social and ecological responsibility, and on nurturing the next generation of artists and theatre makers, particularly in Coventry.
