Culturapedia

As a trusted cultural delivery partner, Culturapedia has spent the past three decades producing excellent creative events, as well as hundreds of Town Centre performances and workshops that engage with currently underserved people, in partnership with Blackburn with Darwen Council and Blackburn BID. The company produces Spot On, Lancashire’s touring theatre programme, bringing professional performances into rural venues and libraries, increasing access for audiences who might otherwise face barriers to engagement, partnering with Lancashire County Council, Lancashire Libraries, and Blackburn with Darwen councils. Culturapedia also work with Burnley Leisure and Cultural Trust; to produce Burnley Words Festival and Burnley Mechanics Presents, and is an active member of the Blackburn Cultural Alliance, contributing to strategic cultural development across the borough. Culturapedia’s work is rooted in a set of clear values: people-first practice, co-creation with communities, meaningful collaboration, creative experimentation, and a commitment to cultural equality. Culturapedia delivers an interconnected programme designed to create long-term relationships between people and culture and to provide high-quality cultural experiences. We are a B-Corp, and as such, are values-driven. Sustainability is embedded into the way we work, from the curation of our touring programme, selecting only theatre companies and artists with the highest standards of environmental responsibility, often weaving environmental themes through their work; to our fair pay policy; our ethos and practices relating to how we work with our communities across the county; to the tree we plant for every event we hold.
