About

FRAME is a cultural education partnership of organisations and practitioners committed to improving the lives of children and young people in Allerdale and Copeland through high quality arts and culture. The partnership comprises arts, cultural, heritage, youth and education organisations and practitioners, and is overseen by a steering group.

FRAME was established in late 2016 in direct response to Arts Council England’s Cultural Education Challenge. This was a call to action for the arts, culture and education sectors to work better together in offering a consistent high-quality art and cultural education for all children and young people.

FRAME’s vision is rooted in a fundamental belief that arts and culture make our lives better, whether it is improving wellbeing, mental health, engagement in learning, attainment, employability, or creating opportunities to bring communities and families together, and that many children and young people are currently at risk of ‘missing out’.

FRAME’s wider partnership is open to all organisations and individuals who champion and deliver arts and cultural education and learning in our schools and the wider community in West Cumbria.
