Derby Museums is accepting applications for UK Creative Community Fellows, a brand new online and in-person programme for cultural trailblazers to be part of something bigger, to learn life-changing skills, and to see dreams become reality.

Beginning in October 2020 and running through January 2021, artists, community organisers, administrators and entrepreneurs from around the United Kingdom will explore new tools and frameworks to successfully drive positive change in their communities through arts and culture projects.

Due to the ongoing situation and evolving nature of Covid-19 in the UK and worldwide we have made the difficult decision to postpone the FORMAT Off Year 2020 and accompanying FORMAT Off Year activities, including the FORMAT Portfolio Review.

The health and safety of our visitors is the top priority, and we feel this is in the best interest of protecting our guests, our customers, our staff, and our community.QUAD, FORMAT HQ is currently closed to the public but our staff continue to work at home and in the building.

Regarding the recent coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak, we are following government advice and updates as well as implementing our own procedures with a common-sense approach.

GT Couriers is committed to providing our clients with the best possible service at all times.

The recent events surrounding coronavirus will no doubt put pressure on our resources, with the need to balance our clients’ expectations whilst also protecting our staff and the wider public from the spread of the virus.

Applications are now open for collaborative leaders to take part in the first UK Creative Community Fellows Programme (UK CCF).

Many of the events listed on this website will have been cancelled due to the novel Coronavirus - Covid-19.  Please check with events organisers for more information if you planned attending any of the events you find on this website.
