Arts Emergency is a UK-based charity that seeks opportunities in the Arts and Humanities sector for underrepresented young people aged 16-26. Founded by campaigner Neil Griffiths (current CEO) and comedian Josie Long in 2011, Arts Emergency was created in response to the increasing tuition fees, abolition of public funding for the teaching of arts subjects in British universities and the lack of social mobility in the Arts, a belief reinforced by the 2015 Panic! survey initiated by Create London and the 2018 Panic! It's an Arts Emergency Report led by academics Drs Dave O’Brien, Orian Brook, and Mark Taylor from the Universities of Edinburgh and Sheffield. The Charity launched with an event at the Hackney Empire in the London borough that hosted its pilot project in 2012. More information...
