Roundhouse is a hub of inspiration where artists and emerging talent create extraordinary work and where young people can grow creatively as individuals. Roundhouse has nominated the digital media and broadcasting company, VICE Media Group, for the Corporate Award for its donation towards Roundhouse’s Rising programme which supports diverse creative talent of the future to progress their careers in off-stage music roles. The partnership has enabled the creation of a series of Rising Traineeships; an Industry Careers Day for more than 100 15-to-19-year-olds; the mounting of a five-day festival showcasing underrepresented artists including Deaf Rave, an organisation that specialises in events made by and for Deaf communities worldwide; and a £1 ticket offer for those under 30. This nomination demonstrates a holistic approach to partnership where dedicated team members within both organisations were engaged in the creation of a dynamic creative offer for young people and committed to maximising its reach, scale and impact.
