Is this for me?

PLATFORM: Trailblazers is open to all to enjoy an evening of creative expression and to offer feedback to local young artists aged 16-30 presenting their work.

Young people aged under-16 must be supervised by an adult.

Info

PLATFORM’s spring reset is all about shaking off the winter cobwebs and stepping into what’s next. It’s more than just a gathering; it’s a space for young Lutonian artists (aged 16–30) to come together, connect and imagine new creative possibilities.

After a run of PLATFORM nights and The Makers Series, PLATFORM: Trailblazers brings it all together. The evening will showcase brilliant work created or shared across these sessions, alongside live moments from Lutonian artists presenting, performing and experimenting with their creative practices.

This isn’t a sit-back-and-watch kind of event.. It’s a relaxed, social experience that encourages conversation, movement and unexpected encounters with art and collaborators. With playful surprises, pop-up food and creative extras throughout the space, the night is designed to feel lively, welcoming and fun.

If you’d like to present or perform your work, please apply here.

If you’d simply like to come along to see what’s happening, you’ll find exciting art, open energy and like-minded people shaping the future of creativity and culture in Luton. Sign up to attend here.

This is a space for trailblazers and you’re invited.

If you have any questions, need support or want to chat more about the event, please get in touch with our Young People’s Producer, Anthony, via email: anthony@revolutonarts.com

What is a scratch night? 

A scratch night invites artists to present works-in-progress, to gain feedback and insight from a live audience. Performances are typically unpolished and are in the early stages of conception.

Will there be refreshments? 

There will be soft drinks and light snacks available.

I want to present my work-in-progress at PLATFORM. How do I apply? 

Please visit our Opportunities page, where we will advertise the call-out to local artists. Please note that for the event in March, we are prioritising applications from artists between 16-30 who live, work and/or study in Luton.

Does Revoluton Arts cover travel expenses within Luton?

Yes – we can cover up to £8 for travel within Luton to PLATFORM, if you provide a receipt/proof of travel.

Please get in touch with our Young People’s Producer, Anthony, if you need any help with this. You can reach him via email: anthony@revolutonarts.com
