Bedford Producer Hub aims to support practitioners creating a diverse range of projects which benefit local participants and audiences and are relevant to local needs and wants.

The Bedford Producer Hub is a FREE mentoring and networking opportunity for local, emerging creative producers delivered by 1DegreeEast in partnership with Bedford Creative Arts.  Those in the Hub get access to a programme of 1-2-1 mentoring sessions, group seminars, webinars and networking events aimed at supporting them to develop a creative idea into a real project that provides cultural activity for communities in Bedford.  They will also receive a small bursary to match-fund your project.   

Here’s what some of our 2023-24 Cohort said about the programme: 

Thank you for offering your ongoing support – this is such a valuable resource to have, and I feel privileged to be part of it.  

It’s hard to find useful information on how to start an art career but the Bedford Producer Hub gave me a strong foundation to begin projects.  

The content and presentations of the cohort meet-ups were really valuable and relevant, with some amazing assets provided to help us on our way. It’s been really great to hear other people’s approach to their project and their creative process too.  

If you have any questions, please contact producerhub@bedfordcreativearts.org.uk or 01234 818670 to discuss the programme.
