Building on the legacy of The Arches arts venue, following its closure in 2015, Take Me Somewhere provides a crucial support structure and platform for Scotland’s most vital artists, and showcases some of the world’s most cutting-edge contemporary performance makers.
Take Me Somewhere’s presence pulsates across the city with inspirational work igniting the city’s main stages, arts venues, churches, nightclubs and gardens. The festival - which has innovative performance at its core - acts as a connector between people, work and ideas, and is inspired by the talent, energy and voracity of the city’s arts community.
It’s a space for crucial, diverse voices from here and abroad that take us somewhere in our personal and collective journeys, understanding the globalised and multicultural world we live in; voices that allow us to consider where we are now and envisage what a future somewhere could be.
The festival is led by Artistic Director LJ Findlay-Walsh.
