Hey arts organisations.

Need a hand with your communications?

Years of skills and experience right when and how you need it.

We’re a tiny communications agency, working with arts organisations across the UK. Which means you get the best of both worlds – years of relevant experience and expertise, plus a personal interest in your team, your audiences and your work.

We take on all sorts of arts marketing and communications projects, especially in the performing arts. But we’ve got a real soft spot for classical music and opera, and exploring new ideas, new formats and new audiences.

Communications agency and design studio, all under one roof

Your work need to look as good on posters and in adverts as it looks or sounds onstage. Our in-house design studio removes back and forth, wait times and awkward feedback with external designers. So you get exactly what you need, quickly and easily.

Friendly and straight-talking

Working with consultants like us can be a big step, so how do you know if we’re the right people for the job? Best thing to do is have a chat with us.

Together we can work out what you need and how we can help. We’re not out to bewilder you with new jargon and management speak.

Data protection (and GDPR)

It’s boring, but it’s important everyone in your organisation knows what they’re doing when it comes to data protection. We can run data protection training and help with data audits, policies and systems.

All things digital

Many arts organisations don’t have the time or technical skills to prioritise digital innovation. We can look after website redesigns, social media planning and creating digital content.

Organisational change

Can you sum up what you do in just 20 seconds? Would everyone in your organisation give the same answer? Is your work still relevant, or your team as efficient as they can be?

Copywriting

Nudging people into buying tickets, exciting them about your latest show or building trust with future donors. Words are important, and we’ll help you choose the right ones.

Branding

We’re not just talking logos and the pretty stuff. We mean how you talk to your audience, your ‘personality’ as an organisation, what you stand for and what you look like next to your competitors.

Marketing strategy

How are you actually going to turn your art into an audience? We’ll help you sell those tickets or Friends memberships, or run your crowdfunding campaign, or launch that campaign to find patrons.
