We encourage young people to challenge the barriers they face by engaging with the arts. Young people from all backgrounds, including those who are financially deprived or have experienced abuse, and those who live with a disability. We get them involved, thinking, doing, creating... discovering their potential. We aim high: we work with world class artists and high quality youth workers to inspire, challenge, encourage and support.

Rural Arts South Gloucestershire is the Rural & Community Arts Touring Scheme for South Gloucestershire. It provides a choice of high quality arts events for local communities. These include performances by professional companies, workshops and films, usually held in village halls, schools or community centres.
