A listing for an important October for us.

Sweet Patootee Arts has an exciting programme this (UK) Black History Month. it’s a marker for our steady progress – thanks to consultants, partners, stakeholders and the wonderful public response to TURNING POINT (our first major project) – since our organisation launched in 2017.

Interweaving and giving richly transformative insight to Sweet Patootee Arts’ activitirities this month, is our own Tony T’s new part-time role (see below). We’re giving loads and the belt needs must draw in a little tighter, but we’re gaining so much in return.

Here’s our programme – if you catch us along the way and you want to connect around your/ our work, don’t be shy.
