The New Carnival Company
The New Carnival Company (NCC) is facilitating a series of training days on behalf of Carnival Network South East (CNSE) in the early Spring at venues across the region. This follows an extensive piece of research and analysis carried out by the company on behalf of CNSE, and programme delivery
is likely to include content around Event Planning and Risk Management as well as providing creative ideas and a hands-on approach for engaging more schools and young people into carnival. The project is funded by Arts Council England and forms part of an ongoing programme of cooperation and collaboration between
carnivals and artists in the South East. Membership is open and (currently) free of charge.
