Supporting culture, community and creative practice

Hidden Beach works with partners who share our commitment to culture as a public good — rooted in care, connection, creativity and community.

Partnership at Hidden Beach is not primarily about visibility or advertising. It is about helping make space for artists, facilitators, families, young people and communities to gather, learn, create and connect.

We work with a small number of aligned partners each year, and shape partnerships with care so they feel appropriate, ethical and meaningful within the context of the programme.

What partnership can support

Partner support helps make possible:

• Fair payment for artists, facilitators and cultural workers

• Free and low-cost access for audiences and communities

• Family, youth and wellbeing programmes

• Learning and skills-sharing through Festival School

• Accessibility, care and support infrastructure

• Environmental responsibility and sustainable practice

Partnership is one of the ways we protect the quality, care and integrity of the programme.

What partners receive

We shape each partnership individually, but this may include:

• Thoughtful acknowledgment within festival communications and materials

• Association with a respected, community-rooted cultural programme

• Opportunities to support specific sessions, strands or projects

• Invitations to attend and take part in the programme

• Recognition in our annual reporting and community communications

We avoid intrusive branding or commercialisation that would detract from the atmosphere of care, listening and presence.

Who we work with

We welcome partnerships with:

• Local businesses and independent organisations

• Values-aligned brands and social enterprises

• Trusts, foundations and community sponsors

• Cultural, educational and wellbeing partners

We are particularly interested in working with partners who care about culture, inclusion, community wellbeing, learning, access and long-term impact.

We’re always happy to share more about the programme, our values and how partnership might look.

Hidden Beach exists because of collaboration — between artists, audiences, facilitators, volunteers, partners and the wider community.

Partnership is not about buying attention.
It is about helping hold space for culture.

Thank you for considering being part of that.
