Current Projects 2025
Future of the Past, Gainsborough Heritage Centre
Future of the Past is an amazing partnership project that brings together 20 arts and heritage organizations in Lincolnshire. Led by SOUNDlincs, with trusted partners Taylor Made Arts, Paradigm Arts, cultural solutions uk and Lincolnshire County Council's Historic Places team.
The project aims to breathe new life into Lincolnshire's heritage by developing unique relationships with young people to rekindle the narratives and collections that lie within.
TMA are working in Gainsborough with the Gainsborough Heritage Association (GHA).
TMA started work in March 2024 with a group of young people who staged a performance inspired by a painting of the town's former workhouse displayed at GHA at Trinity Arts Centre and as part of WordFest in Gainsborough.
We then created an animation based on a timeline at the Heritage Centre which was shared at the Illuminate event in February 2025.

This three-year project will see more opportunities for younger audiences to engage with GHA to broaden their horizons, and feel a sense of ownership over these cultural spaces.
Empowering Voices, Empowering Worldviewsews
This is a development of the REConnecting Lincolnshire work, (see past projects)
The project provides opportunities for children and young people in Lincolnshire to expand their knowledge and have a greater understanding of a range of worldviews by exploring how their own lived experiences relate to a wider national context through a series of podcasts.
Empowering Voices, Exploring Worldviews is a partnership project with the Lincoln Diocesan Board of Education (LDBE), Shooting Fish and cultural solutions.
The work supports children and young people in Lincolnshire, where less than 3 in 100 people are BAME, to engage with diversity.
Outputs
• A series of up to 10 podcasts created with associated educational activities
• An audio play, soundscape and in-conversation piece created for each main worldview
• 5000 young people and the general public will be reached as an online digital audience.
• A new, rich and relevant resource will be created with the potential for use nationally in a range of educational and community settings
