2019 has already proved a milestone year for Imaginate and the Children’s Festival.
Imaginate launched its 30 year anniversary programme at Bute House, including an enhanced artist development programme, a new schools project and PUSH+, a new Creative-Europe funded project.
In January a delegation of 19 Scottish artists, producers and companies also presented a Spotlight on Scotland showcase at the prestigious International Performing Arts for Youth (IPAY) conference, held in Philadelphia.
