“Last year, The Spark Arts for Children launched Vital Spark, a four-year programme with an ambitious aim: to address the lack of diversity in the children’s arts sector. … At that point, we recognised the need to look at our own diversity gaps and the power dynamic between us and the artists. One year on, we’ve begun to see a shift, as well as experiencing some steep learning curves. We’ve identified three themes to steer the way forward.” – Arts Professional
