Find Your Talent gives children and young people the chance to try out different cultural and creative activities. It's about helping them to discover new things, to express themselves, to develop a passion and to make the most of their talent. Whether it is music, art, film, theatre, dance, digital media, exploring libraries, museums or heritage, Find Your Talent is for every child and young person, whatever their age and whatever their ability.
Find Your Talent is being piloted in ten pathfinder areas across England and offers children and young people regular involvement with arts and culture both in and out of school. Find Your Talent is funded by the Department for Culture, Media and Sport, the Department for Children, Schools and Families, Arts Council England and the Museums, Libraries and Archives Council. The Customs House is the only North East venue delivering this prestige project and innovative programme.
The Find your Talent Team will initially work in Jarrow and Seaton Burn in the first year of the pilot, before rolling out the initiative across the whole of North and South Tyneside in the next two years, and will be partnering cultural organisations with schools, young people and local communities to develop this truly exciting initiative.
