About us
Who we are
Buckinghamshire Culture is an independent charity established to nurture and champion arts and culture in the county. We exist so that more people in Bucks are able participate in quality cultural activities on their doorstep – enabling meaningful experiences that build togetherness, belonging and pride. We provide an invaluable networking and facilitating function for the Bucks cultural sector that underpins delivery, increases opportunities and enhances participation.
We shape collaborative projects that engage communities, putting artists and creatives at the heart of our towns and villages. Our multi-year (2024-26) Stories project will deliver participatory events and activities across the county. Our ethos of co-creation will empower communities to work with professional artists to create experiences that are rooted in Bucks. We underpin delivery with invaluable support for organisations and individuals through training opportunities, advice, networking and inspiration. This includes our annual Cultural Conference and regular sector development and networking events. We are just developing a Cultural Awards scheme for Bucks to be launched in Autumn 2024. We advocate for arts, heritage and culture to stakeholders and decision-makers.
Buckinghamshire Culture leads delivery of the Buckinghamshire Cultural Strategy and its strategic priorities, through collaborative, collective programmes.
