HARRISON/PARROTT FOUNDATION
The HarrisonParrott Foundation supports and champions diversity and inclusivity within the arts. We deliver/support programmes and projects which counter/correct the idea that ethnicity, gender, sexuality, disability and social background or life experience are impediments to full inclusivity. We believe everyone deserves to have access to, to be free to participate in and contribute to the arts.
