Artist CPD and Master Classes

The team at The New Carnival Company have years of experience working in the carnival and celebratory arts sector and are keen to share their skills with others.

We offer bespoke training courses and one –off workshops in many areas including large costume and puppet making, structures and articulation, flags and banner making, giant lanterns and illuminated images, project development, community engagement and leader training.

For individual artists, arts officers, producers and event organisers we can provide a range of Internship, Mentoring and Continuous Professional Development opportunities. These opportunities are tailor made to changing training needs and designed to ensure that participants are fully aware of contemporary techniques and current legislation and are, therefore, best placed to gain employment opportunities within the outdoor arts sector
