Hi, we are Revoluton Arts.
We are a people-powered project on a mission to cultivate grassroots creativity in Luton and put on high-quality creative events that delight our town's diverse audiences.
Our events and programmes that aim to inspire and support more Lutonians to engage in creativity in all its forms - from henna art to animation, dance to beat-boxing.

Revoluton Arts is an Arts Council England Creative People and Places project.
Luton’s people are at the heart of what we do.
Our programme is designed by, with and for Luton’s diverse citizens.
We reach out into all corners of the town, finding out what creativity means to the people who live there and collaborating with them to design creative events and projects that speak to their hearts.
We uncover talent, collaborate with local creatives and develop ‘Revolutonary’ ideas.
