Igniting Ambition Festival – Promoting Our Members Excellence!

It is very exciting  and makes us all very proud to to celebrate the newly released Igniting Ambition Festival Brochure 2010 http://bit.ly/biWhDI , as it features a whole host of our BME and Stakeholder members across the East Midlands region. This is shows  how Mainstream Partnerhip has kept its focus in terms of striving for excellence (as set out in the DCMS McMasters Report ) in its work with our membership BME & Stakeholder members alike. Clearly this also demonstrates how our  own particular intervention is key  in creating  positve partnerships, that make achievements that will leave a lasting legacy.   A crucial  factor for this phenomenal  success is that we ensure our  members both BME and Stakeholders receive information from us  in a timely way.  This is  then followed up by us  with further information, contact, advice and support, advocacy, brokerage, networking or introductory meetings. We have  learnt it is vital to make make good relationships, that instill trust and confidence, as well as being strategic and progressive in our delivery.  Equally our role on regional arts heritage  steering groups has been key in terms of  leading on culturally diversity in the arts .  Alongside our growing advisory, consultancy, arts managment roles  also.   The Ignition Ambition Brochure and our BME members inclusion, represents also the hard work that we have done behind the scenes to bring about change over time. Therefore it  is an important  moment for the organization, and overall in the history of the arts cultural sector in our region – especially at a time of considerable flux  and transition.

Supported by ACE, Mainstream Partnership Staff and Board have enthusiastically, (despite major challenges) developed and built an organization and its work  over three years with our BME and Stakeholders members . We have now  reached a peak, a culmination of all our combined efforts of  advocacy, celebrating, and promoting our BME Members.  By supporting and raising the profile of  our BME members achievements to our Stakeholders members and the arts sector generally. We have been able to to make a big impact in assisting the  BME arts sector  to be more intergrated within the mainstream arts sector .  Mainstream Partnership’s profile and its programme delivery, reflects a growing  confidence in the organization from across the region’s arts cultural  sector. We as an organization are on the cusp of further growth and looking to expand our ambition in the coming period.
