SUPPORT & PARTNERSHIPS
Help young people in Bath access creative studio opportunities through music production, recording, podcasting and creative media.
Why support The Making Place?
The Making Place is a developing community-focused creative provision for young people in Bath. We use music production, recording, podcasting and creative media to help young people build confidence, skills and self-expression in a safe, supportive studio environment.
We are currently piloting the project, with the aim of developing into a Community Interest Company as the provision grows.
