Hello and welcome to Power in Partnerships, a Rising Arts Agency podcast series exploring strategies for dismantling the power imbalances apparent in Cultural sector partnership working. Please make yourself at home!

You're in for a treat with this episode. As part of Rising's research with Kings College and the Centre for Cultural Value around power imbalances as part of partnership working, we hear directly from young people about their experiences of working with cultural institutions. So, you’ll hear recordings of some of Rising’s young artists , as well as a chat between Euella, Andreanna and Jess reflecting on what their visions for equitable partnership working. There's lots of honesty and vulnerability in this one and we hope that you get a lot from it.

This episode was recorded and narrated by Joe Hill, a member of Rising's community.
