Projects


Our aims for RUOS Phase 3

  • Strengthen and build a more diverse, inclusive, Community Associates panel to feed into Borough wide programming, with the aim of creating a programme of work which is relevant and welcoming to all; 

  • Continue to enable artistically excellent projects that make connections across the borough and enable more people to experience, create and be a part of brilliant art & culture. 

  • Continue to play with the format and content of two DN Festivals per year, with the aim of creating a model which is themed and responsive to the needs and interests of the community of Doncaster and is ultimately sustainable. 

  • Establish the RUOS network as a valued community programming resource feeding into the wider cultural ecology of Doncaster.
