We Make Culture CIC is a social enterprise based in Sunderland, which delivers high-quality, embedded music-making programmes across the city. Founded in 2017, our mission is to bring people together through music-making, supporting the development of creative confidence and increase people’s capacity to fulfil their potential and be heard.

Our aims

Everyone makes culture

We believe that taking part in culture should not be a function of a person’s social or economic circumstances. We believe that creative talent and potential are everywhere, but opportunity to participate and flourish is not. Our work strives to change this, by targeting our work in places with least opportunity and supporting them to thrive.

Culture is collaborative

Both within projects and when working with other organisations, we believe culture is collaborative. Our activities bring people together – to achieve, to learn and to have fun – with co-creation and generosity at the heart of everything we do. We actively seek out partner organisations who share our values and believe we are stronger working together.

Value in everyone’s story

We support participants to express themselves authentically in ways which are meaningful and relevant to them. We believe, through self-expression, people can affect positive changes in their lives and in society.

Long term, sustained commitment for systemic change

We commit to working long term with people, communities and organisations, believing that it takes time to develop and nurture meaningful relationships and trust. Our work is led by the needs of participants, and we believe in learning, reflecting and adapting our approach as we go.
