Let’s get Monmouthshire moving!!
With funding received through ACW Out & About project and Creative Futures, we have been able to implement a new post into the Dance Blast family.
Zoe is now our new Community Outreach Facilitator & Project Manager, and we are super excited to welcome her to Dance Blast.
Zoe will be working and engaging with the communities of Monmouthshire to allow Dance Blast to continue to provide high quality, affordable participatory arts provision for everyone. We want to reach as many people, of all ages and abilities in Monmouthshire as possible.
Dance Blast wants to provide high quality dance and aerial activities to the members of our community who are currently not accessing the opportunities we provide due to barriers such as, disability, rural geography and socio-economics.
