Creatives Now is a youth-led arts collective in Bolton, empowering 12–18-year-olds to co-create bold, community-driven projects that shape the town’s cultural landscape.
A youth-led space for intergenerational collaboration and community learning.
Founded by local artists and cultural leaders with a vision for change, Creatives Now empowers young people aged 12–18 to take the lead in shaping their town’s creative future. Through workshops, residencies and public projects, Creatives Now supports emerging voices to explore identity, visibility and community through the arts.
What sets Creatives Now apart is its genuine commitment to co-creation. Young people don’t just take part, they lead. Whether devising original theatre, curating exhibitions, or transforming public spaces, participants are mentored by professional artists and supported to realise their ideas at a high standard.
