AnalogFolk joins Roundhouse as official partner to run creative projects for young people
Independent digital agency AnalogFolk has signed up as an official partner of the Roundhouse in London to help the development and running of the institution’s digital media skills programme.
AnalogFolk will deliver a digital media skills programme for young creatives aged 11-25 which they hope will enhance their artistic work. It will also provide mentoring and career advice as well as feeding into the extensive Roundhouse programme of events across media, music and performing arts.
As a registered charity, the Roundhouse supports young people in helping them realise their creative potential by running projects in music, broadcast, digital and performing arts. As a performing arts venue the Roundhouse commissions content spanning genres from music, circus, theatre and digital.
Ete Davies, managing director at AnalogFolk London, said: "The Roundhouse is much more than a prestigious music venue, it’s an incredibly inspirational organisation that nurtures the next generation of creative talent from diverse backgrounds. Its ethos is deeply aligned to ours and we feel very privileged to be supporting the iconic and highly creative institution on its journey of digital innovation."
Marie Horner, broadcast and digital programme producer at Roundhouse, also commented: "We’re really excited to be partnering with AnalogFolk. We’ll be able to really draw on their digital expertise to offer young people the best learning opportunities on our digital media skills programme. Partnering our young creatives with industry experts is so important in giving the relevant steps into creative industries."
