Continuing the work of the Pride Community Foundation and Pride Cultural Development Fund, Culture ConneX is a brand new initiative from Brighton & Hove Pride for 2022 delivered in partnership with urbanflo.
Culture ConneX
is a groundbreaking programme combining curated and open access creative activities for all to enjoy.
Our mission is simple – we want to create dynamic opportunities for different communities to access the arts and to also connect with each other. We aim to enable people from all walks of life to communicate and learn about each other through many different forms of creative expression. We recognise the various ways in which people choose to identify and how these many identities often intersect, so we have purposely designed the Culture ConneX series to interweave between mainstream programming and events for specific communities. We creatively celebrate our differences while also focussing on our commonalities. Our purpose is to help to build bridges and to develop intercultural dialogue for a better understanding of each other and the world we live in.
