partnership + people + creativity = community
the first Every Sort of people event happened In 2017, in partnership with Lewes Football Club. This event was an accessible community festival, building on our work with learning disabled people and accessible arts programming.
Through Culture Shift facilitation, over 30 local community sector organisations contributed to the success of the Every Sort of People Festival and over 1000 people attended on the day.
“The Every Sort of People Festival was very well planned and run by lots of enthusiastic people, seemed like there were lots of busy people knowing what to do and when, while helping individuals with additional needs. A very professional event, I could see how much work had gone into making the day a success.”
