Eyeview cultural programme forms part of Torbay’s Great Place Scheme: a pilot scheme funded by Arts Council England and the National Lottery Heritage Fund during 2017-20 

Through 2019, Eyeview presented a series of site-specific commissions, participatory projects and community actions. The programme has supported artists and communities to animate and re-imagine Torbay’s culture and heritage. Cultural events and activities have gathered people together, animating key heritage assets and platforming new work in collaboration with local, regional and national partners. 

During the 2020 pandemic we amended our programme as appropriate. The team have been working to support the sector as part of Torbay’s Great Place Scheme, evaluate learnings and develop opportunities for the future. The extensive Torbay evaluation is now underway and will report in early 2021. Keep up to date by visiting Torbay Culture’s news and updates pages.

Watch the films below to look back on Eyeview’s 2019 events programmes and meet the artists and communities involved.
