Thematic hubs

Six hubs coordinate the people, skills, and programs behind the public experience.

The hub network coordinates route design, cultural production, education, publishing, and community partnerships, giving each region a stronger operational backbone and a clearer public voice.

Cluster hubs

What the hub layer does

Each hub gathers the formats, partners, and responsibilities that help a region welcome visitors and sustain local work over time.

Together, the hubs translate territory into action: they coordinate programming, connect practitioners, and make sure projects remain legible to both local communities and external partners.

Services and capacities

Producer and maker coordination

Festival, exhibition, and event programming

Who the hubs are built for

Makers and producers

The full hub pages are open to practitioners who already generate cultural, culinary, or craft value on the ground.

Organisers and institutions

Hubs also gather institutions, public organisers, and local associations able to host, document, or scale regional work.

Learners and emerging members

Education, apprenticeships, and community onboarding remain part of the hub structure so knowledge is not locked inside a small core team.
