BlueJam Arts CIC is an innovative community music and arts organisation based in Penrith, Cumbria.
We run a full programme of creative workshops using music and art to foster wellbeing, mental health and community engagement. Our team learns as well as teaches and welcomes all the people and new ideas that come through our door and make the place what it is – friendly and inspiring.
A core feature of everything we do is improvisation, whether it is directly through our jazz, electronic or composition programmes, or as a discipline to help us deliver our programmes safely and responsively. We initiate and collaborate on music, film, performance and digital art-centred work, which we deliver through sessions at our Art Space and in the community.
Do get in touch if you’d like to hear more about our work and how you can get involved.
