The arts service is based within Community Learning and Development, part of Office of Environment and Community Services.

The aim of the Service is to promote awareness of and access to a wide range of arts activities for the people of Cambridgeshire. 

This involves:

• Developing work in partnership with Arts Council England, East, the district and city councils, professional and voluntary arts organisations; 
• General advice on the provision, management and development of arts facilities, projects and schemes;
• Advice and support to locally based groups and organisations wishing to apply for funding from other sources.
• The Cambridge Arts Directory contains information about many of the arts-based programmes and organisations that you can find in and around Cambridge
