Through varied arts and youth voice programmes, Chispa empowers young people to take ownership of their city’s public and cultural spaces. Projects like The Empowering Voices film, Revive Couture sustainable fashion show and Concrete Narratives: creative arts and movement jam, and partnerships and collaborations with international companies Upswing and SAY, all co-created with a youth team, focus on reducing barriers, fostering creativity, and providing safe environments for growth. Chispa is committed to nurturing youth leadership through continuous Peer Youth Research and long-term cultural transformation in Gloucester.
