There is no doubt that COVID-19 has a large impact on the creative and cultural sector in Somerset, and as a sector support organisation for the industry we need to know what this impact looks like. Then we can inform support, trade, funding and council organisations on what to do next.

Whether you work in Craft, Dance, Design, Film/Video, Games, Apps & Software, Heritage, Museums, Music, Publishing/Writing, Theatre, or Visual Art we want to hear from you.

These surveys are quite simple and will contribute to the wider national picture affecting the creative and cultural sector, so please take the time to take our impact survey.

Digital Capability During COVID-19

We also know that many musicians and artists; whether independent or employed by venues and other orgs; have been thinking hard about how they can utilise the digital and online landscape and create more digital products and services. But we believe there are skills and capability gaps.  So we are asking musicians and artists to take our short ‘Digital Capability surveys. This data will help us focus on where you need support and where new or existing funds may support you too.
