Organisations

Europe’s rural regions make a substantial contribution to the richness and diversity of European culture, but are not eligible to apply for European Capital of Culture (ECOC) status. The European Regions of Culture Campaign organisation is working to create a parallel scheme to the ECOC which will celebrate and connect rural regions: “to harness rural culture to create a better, more sustainable future for rural regions individually, collectively and in Europe as a whole”.

The work has grown out of a series of explorations and investigations run by Cornwall Arts Marketing over the last couple of years and you can see some of this on our website. 

We are currently developing a network of cultural operators in rural regions so that we can:

• Exchange ideas

• Facilitate artistic partnership

• Develop projects

• Campaign jointly in favour of the idea

• Developing a website
