Third Version Creative help spark change through supporting and realising artist-led projects, impactful placemaking schemes and bold creative programmes.

Led and founded by Sud Basu, they support artists and creative institutions of all types and work across all artforms. They help produce bold ideas, form lasting strategies, bridge and broker connections – and ultimately present or programme new work in all settings. Their broad portfolio of work has a shared focus on those creative practices found in the social and political interactions between people, community and place. Their work is held together in partnership with those who are also seeking equity, justice and change in our society.

Crying Out Loud and Third Version Creative in partnership

Our joint programme of work is building on the track records of both Rachel and Sud in new and exciting ways.

The partnership has developed from a shared ambition to use creativity to strengthen connections between communities and broaden our shared understanding of cultures through creativity.

We are pooling our combined experience as creative producers to curate and connect artists, programmers and their communities nationally and internationally; and to support world-class artistic experiences come to life in different forms and locations. The joint programme of work will ask important questions, dive deep into the unexpected and open-up new collaborative possibilities to platform world-class creativity.
