SAN Plymouth
SAN Plymouth is facilitated by Take A Part (TAP), a socially engaged arts organisation based in Plymouth, but dedicated to a member-led ethos.
TAP’s core aims are to use creativity to enable communities to set their own agendas and take action where they live – improving their local environment and in turn, instilling pride, ownership and agency; improving mental health & wellbeing and increasing appreciation for understanding of the value of culture in everyday lives.
Take A Part value arts and heritage. We are experts in engaging people creatively in places, their identity and through investigating where people live and how they come together, we develop audiences for contemporary art and heritage through collective doing, supporting long-term changes to communities.
Based in Plymouth, we work in areas that have historically experiences social and economical injustices to collectively work with people in the area to work to take more agency in their future by using creative approaches to tackle local needs and set agendas. Using creative ways of working to bring people together to make decisions.
