Light the Spark: Flamm in Bodmin

Flamm is a visual arts festival that brings exciting work from around the country and the world to Cornwall. It also supports new projects by local artists and gives everyone, residents and visitors alike, a chance to get involved and take part in the festival. And, it's coming to Bodmin in February 2026 – and we want to make sure it reflects the people who live here.

That’s where you come in.

We’re inviting everyone who lives in Bodmin, or within the catchment area for Bodmin Community College, to join one of our community sessions. These sessions are open to all ages and all walks of life: families, teenagers, retirees, community groups, local creatives… anyone who calls Bodmin home.

🌟 Why come?

• Help shape the festival programme so it represents your community

• Share ideas for projects, events, or activities you’d love to see

• Connect with other people who care about Bodmin

• Find out how to access £20,000 of funding set aside for community groups and local creatives

At this stage, the sky’s the limit, ideas don’t need to be fully formed. Whether you’ve got a spark of inspiration or just want to be part of the conversation, you’re welcome.

No idea is too small (or too big), and everyone has a voice. This is about listening, imagining, and starting with a blank page.

👉 Reserve your free place today and be part of shaping Flamm for Bodmin.
