The vision of Festival Stoke has always been ‘to bring great art into everyday places’, by which we mean that people going about their everyday lives, shopping, driving to work, walking to school, visiting friends, cycling or taking the bus, will encounter amazing works of art along the way. We aim to create moments of surprise and delight, to challenge and provoke, and to get people talking to one another about the artworks they have seen. At the heart of all we do is a focus on participatory arts through which we offer opportunities to people in groups or as individuals to take part in free creative workshops. Guided by our experienced artists, children and adults can express their own creativity in supportive and safe environments, and contribute to the artworks that are created. We hope to inspire and uplift, and through the work that we do, to encourage the community of Stoke to feel more positive through expressing their creativity.
