KALA Arts CIC is a Leicester-based community interest company that brings together creativity, environmental action and social impact.
We work primarily with marginalised young people and global majority communities, creating safe, inclusive spaces where creativity supports confidence, wellbeing and connection.
Our programmes include community workshops, alternative provision sessions and collaborative projects with local partners. Over the past year, we have engaged over 1,600 participants through creative activity, with a strong focus on accessibility, trauma-informed practice and cultural inclusion.
Alongside our creative work, we are developing Recreate, a creative reuse initiative that transforms surplus materials into accessible resources for communities—combining environmental sustainability with creative opportunity.
As a CIC incorporated in 2023, we are a growing grassroots organisation rooted in Leicester, with strong local partnerships and a track record of delivering impactful, community-led projects.
