Community Arts Partnership is an independent advocate for community arts and offers the widest possible range of assistance and opportunity to get creative and engage in community-based arts activity.

Our mission is to take the lead in the promotion, development and delivery of community arts practice, to affect positive change.

Our vision is to see the emergence of a just, inclusive, peaceful and creative society, where difference is welcomed and participation is valued.

We have a two-fold approach to arts development: firstly, supporting access and participation by seeking to affect policy through advocacy and leadership and secondly, promoting authorship and ownership through the active engagement in projects and programmes.

Welcome to The Monthly, Community Arts Partnership’s online arts sector magazine

The Monthly is a place for informed opinions and analysis of ideas, issues and news items from across the arts sector – with an emphasis on the issues affecting community arts – in Northern Ireland. The Monthly editorial bulletin offers all of us in the community arts and indeed, the wider arts sector, an opportunity to reflect on what matters to us, our communities, our organisations and our participating client groups and individuals.

The Monthly comes in three editions:

  • Community Arts
  • Dance

The Monthly is open for your contributions. If you would like to write an article or review an event or if you have an idea for something you would like The Monthly to cover, please get in touch.

Get creative in the Arts Resource Centre

  Welcome to Belfast’s newest cradle of creativity.

It has been Community Arts Partnership’s long-held intention to develop a dedicated multi-purpose community arts centre in heart of Belfast city centre. Since 2003, CAP and others have sought the development of a physical space, where the additional benefits of concentrating and clustering creative and socially-economic activity can multiply the capacity of the organisation and see more significant and crucially sustainable creative development emerge.
