WHAT WE DO | Get It Done

What we do.

Get It Done believes in a future where people feel supported to address pressing social issues through creativity and collective action, leading to lasting positive change in our local communities.

Our work is twofold:

1. PROJECTS.

We produce creative projects and events that engage local communities and drive positive social impact.

2. EDUCATION.

We support young creative changemakers. We upskill people with the tools to take collective action, lead impactful projects in their local communities and achieve their innovative visions of the future.

We do this through:

1. Producing creative projects for social impact.

Get It Done produces creative projects and events for organisations to engage with local communities and drive positive social impact. Our projects offer diverse and often marginalised audiences an opportunity to co-design and participate in creative, cultural and heritage activities.

Get It Done's project process follows a 9-point plan, including consultation, idea development, co-creation, planning, delivery, engagement, impact assessment, evaluation, and future planning. This ensures meaningful outcomes and impact through prioritising community needs.

This could look like:

Creative community projects
Events and pop-ups
Workshop programmes
One-off workshops
Creative consultation and feedback gathering

2. Supporting creative changemakers.

Get It Done produces unique education programmes that support young creative changemakers to reach success. We provide people with the tools to take action, lead impactful projects in their local communities and achieve their visions of a transformed future.

Our programmes break down the process from idea to execution, led by our personal journey from grassroots collective to established community arts organisation. We teach creative change theory, practical management skills and offer personalised 1-on-1 support. This helps young individuals achieve their personal creative visions, develop professional skills, and access opportunities in the creative industries.

This could look like:

Learning programmes
Workshops
Talks and lectures
Creative learning resources (e.g. activity books, toolkits)

3. Creative activations.

Projects allow audiences to participate, collaborate and learn in radical formats, and artists to test out new elements of their creative practices.

This could look like:

Public art commissions

Events and pop-ups
