  • Case Study Raising Awareness of a Participatory Cultural Project
    Case study Raising awareness of a participatory cultural project Rob Lawson The Cultural Spring Published 2014 This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 2.0 UK: England & Wales License Supported by Created and managed by In partnership with 2 The Cultural Spring is a three-year project aiming to increase participation and engagement in the arts in ten wards in Sunderland and South Tyneside. It is funded through the Arts Council’s Creative People and Places Fund. Objectives The objectives of the PR campaign around the Cultural Spring were to: • Raise the profile of The Cultural Spring locally, regionally and nationally • Increase the number of people attending Cultural Spring events through publicity generated • Brief local and regional news outlets/journalists to win media buy-in of the project’s aims • Work with the Cultural Spring team to create an agreed narrative that would help shape PR output • Help shift attitudes towards the arts in our communities – the arts is not just for ‘them’ • Positive PR could also help attract higher-profile artists and possibly help longevity through legacy funders • Tackle any negative publicity should it arise (it hasn’t to date!) • Raise the profile of the individuals and groups we’re working with. Target audiences Local audience Locally, we targeted people living within our wards in Sunderland and South Tyneside, plus other Wearsiders and South Tynesiders who don’t live in the wards, but might attend events or activities. We also targeted a wider audience of north- easterners who might want to attend the larger Cultural Spring events, like the Great North Passion (our launch event organised in collaboration with BBC, and broadcast live on Good Friday on BBC One).
