Cabasa partners with Global Grooves to deliver Creative Careers visual arts training

Cabasa CIC is proud to be a lead partner in Creative Careers, a new programme led by Global Grooves supporting young people aged 14–25 to explore future pathways in the arts.

As the lead visual arts partner, Cabasa is delivering hands-on creative training across Oldham, Rochdale and Tameside, giving young people the chance to develop practical skills in sculpture, carnival arts, sustainable design and textiles.

Working alongside professional artists, participants will gain real-world experience, learn about creative careers, and help shape public artworks and events in their communities.

“It’s about opening doors and showing that creative careers are possible,” said Emily Wood, Artistic Director, Cabasa CIC. “We want to help young people build skills, confidence and a sense of what’s possible within the visual arts.”

Creative Careers is part of a wider regional programme led by Global Grooves, one of Arts Council England’s National Portfolio Organisations, supporting the next generation of artists and producers across Greater Manchester.
