East Midlands Arts in Rural Areas Network

Welcome to the EMARAN page

This page was an original online base for the East Midlands Arts in Rural Areas Network. Please use the link to their new website to view current information and developments.

East Midlands Arts in Rural Areas Network (EMARAN) is a regional voluntary network established in autumn 2006 with the aim of supporting arts in rural areas and rural regeneration through the arts.

Our mission is to create opportunities for artists, creative practitioners, creative industries and cultural organisations in the rural East Midlands to meet, build relationships, and share experience and knowledge. We also act as an advocate for rural culture. This work embraces the voluntary, community and statutory sectors. We also aim to make connections and create partnership working with other sectors of relevance to rural culture such as rural regeneration, tourism and economic development.
