Transported is a strategic, community-focused programme which aims to get more people in Boston Borough and South Holland enjoying and participating in arts activities. It is supported through the Creative People and Places initiative What is Community Events?

In 2014, the very successful Community Events strand worked with dozens of community organisers to bring arts activities to over twenty different local events, enabling thousands of people from all over Boston Borough and South Holland to experience quality, innovative and accessible art. In 2015, the Transported programme is focusing on developing long- term partnerships to promote sustainability. For this reason, this year, we are working with a smaller number of community event organisers from around Boston Borough and South Holland to collaboratively deliver a more streamlined programme of activity. Who is Zoomorphia? Zoomorphia provides participatory arts workshops run by artist Julie Willoughby. Julie specialises in family drop-in workshops at events and festivals. In 2015, Zoomorphia will be bringing a series of events with the theme “Paper Parade” to community events across Boston Borough and South Holland. Participants will learn simple techniques to turn colourful paper and card into large displays or individual souvenirs. Starting with templates, anybody can join in to engineer impressive 3D masterpieces! Who is Rhubarb Theatre?
