FOLLOWING the launch of the Monmouthshire Cultural Strategy, applications are now open to join the Monmouthshire Cultural Partnership Forum.
Across Monmouthshire, culture is lived. Professionals and volunteers enrich the lives of residents at every age, from the youngest to the oldest, helping build a strong sense of belonging and pride.
The Monmouthshire Cultural Partnership Forum will bring together people who care deeply about culture in Monmouthshire and want to help shape its future. Members will play a key role in developing the action plan for cultural activity, sharing insight, championing local activity and helping ensure culture continues to thrive across the county.
The council is seeking a broad and diverse range of voices that reflect Monmouthshire’s rich cultural landscape. From heritage, arts and creativity to community‑led activity, education, events and volunteering.
Whether you are an artist, organiser, volunteer, practitioner, educator or simply passionate about culture, the council wants love to hear from you.
By joining the forum, you’ll have the opportunity to:
- Help shape priorities for culture in Monmouthshire
- Influence decision‑making and future activity
- Connect with others working across the cultural sector
- Celebrate and champion the creativity already happening in our communities
If you are enthusiastic about driving culture forward and want to help create meaningful, memorable experiences for people across Monmouthshire, this is your opportunity to get involved.
Applications are now open and close on May 1, 2026. To apply, please click here.
