## **BALIK ARTS ANNUAL REPORT April 2022 – March 2023** 

This year was one of celebration and fulfilment for Balık Arts as we finally were able to realise all the wonderful projects we were unable to implement during the Covid-19 period and aftermath.  It was a hectic and busy year, but expectionally rewarding in both seeing and knowing we made a real difference to many young people’s lives. 

## ACTORS FOR CHANGE 

The year had a glorious start in April with our Actors for Change project in Bodrum bringing together five partner organisations. Balık Arts was the lead, in collaboration with Acting Now (UK/Spain), Milas Mesleki Eğitim Merkezi (Milas, Turkey), Collective Awareness Association (Izmir, Turkey) and Sinema Okuryazarları Derneği (Yozgat, Turkey). The project was greatly enriched by the fact that the 67 participants were an incredibly diverse group in terms of age, race, ethnicity, socio-economic backgrounds and geographical locations even within each of the national teams. 

The main activities focused on the creation of two Forum Theatre/Theatre of Yes pieces examining the impact of violence on young people’s lives and culminating in two public performances. It would not be an exaggeration to say that Actors for Change was one of the most successful and consequential projects we have run to date. There were significant positive outcomes for all the individuals participating, especially through discovering a new art form that enabled true self expression.  The project’s influence permeated into the local and regional government in the city of Milas and the Muğla province of Turkey and there is the promise of further ventures with Balık Arts.  Outlooks and lives have radically changed for the better due to the project. Over a year later, the project WhatApp group is still regularly buzzing with young people’s messages. 

## FILM BEYOND BORDERS 

Our second major project of the year, Film Beyond Barriers, aimed to empower young people through film and new media to participate in the world around them, present their perspectives and direct their own futures. The project brought together three partners from Italy, Turkey and the UK resulting in two 11-day youth exchanges held in Autumn 2022. The first was in conjunction with Associazione Bianconero’s Religion Today Film Festival in Trento, Italy and the second ran alongside Balık Arts’ own Taste of Anatolia Film Festival in Cambridge, UK. 

The project provided myriad rewards for the young people participating, including many ‘firsts’ in their life.  There was travel abroad for the first time and the experience of different cultures, described by one Turkish participant as “the best time of my life’, alongside attendance and involvement in film festivals. The latter brought exposure to thought provoking film, the chance to learn with film professionals and training opportunities. There was growth in confidence, self-worth and purpose and tangible future career options. One young person gained a festival internship in Italy through being part of the project.

## TASTE OF ANATOLIA VI 

The 4[th] edition of Taste of Anatolia – Films from Turkey (TOA) ran from Saturday 5[th] to Friday 11[th] November 2022 in conjunction with Film Beyond Borders and our Young Programmers Group, which ensured a truly youth led and supported event . This year’s festival was hybrid, consisting of a streaming service available from our online film platform, Balik Arts TV, combined with an array of in-person events. The latter took place in Cambridge city centre at the Old Divinity School, Christ’s College and the Arts Picturehouse. For the first time, TOA was able to reach out to rural communities with an evening of comedy shorts in the village of Burwell.  Importantly we were able to take our festival to London with screenings at Rio Cinema and ArtLens in Hackney. A total of 38 new independent films from Turkey were shown with 1,626 in-venue admissions and 404 online views.  The festival was very well received and perhaps best summarised in the words of one guest - “We don’t normally get the opportunity to see this cinema. Thank you”. 

## YOZGAT BOZOK FILM FESTIVAL 

A further positive development linked directly to Film Beyond Borders was the very first film festival to be held in Yozgat, Turkey.  The city is isolated with very little on offer in terms of the arts or activities for young people.  Our partner, Sinema Okuryazarları Derneği, was supported by Balık Arts through the year to create the inaugural Bozok Film Festival in Yozgat which ran over three days in October. Balık Arts’ Director and Information Officer attended the event as guests and also speakers at youth workshops. 

## APPRENTICESHIP & TRAINEE PROGRAMME 

Our highly successful youth training and mentoring scheme continued throughout the year with a core team of three young people.  They were provided with the opportunity to gain comprehensive knowledge and hands on practical experience of running an arts NGO.  Two trainees joined us as part of the National Apprenticeship Scheme, working towards Level 3 Business Administration. One young person successfully gained their qualification and has since gone on to study at university.  With our newest recruit, the family cannot believe their growth in poise, self confidence and motivation since taking up their position with Balık Arts.  Previously they had dropped out of university and were somewhat directionless. 

## PATCHWORK FAMILY 

Our newest venture has enabled us to realise our ambition of running a truly multigenerational project.  Patchwork Family is a community united by an interest in the arts and a drive to support one another and develop together with a view to tackling social isolation and finding a direction in life, particularly a career. It is a diverse and complex group which has emerged from various projects run over the last two years, primarily in response to Covid-19. Taking place to date largely online due to the geographical spread and commitments of its members, the group, among other achievements, was able to make a notable contribution to Taste of Anatolia IV.

## CLIMATE ACTION 

Preparation has taken place for our final Erasmus+ project which is due to take place in Italy in Summer 2023.  Balık Arts met with partners from Italy and Turkey in Brindisi, Italy in July to plan for a project which seeks to raise the ecological awareness of a wider group of young Europeans and educate them on the topic of climate change and environmental protection. 

## LOOKING TO NEXT YEAR 

Much of the success we enjoyed with our projects this year, and importantly the positive changes we made to young people’s lives, was due to the generosity of Balık Arts volunteers with their time, money and energies, including those in key senior roles. The shadow cast by the loss of European funding, particularly Erasmus+, still hangs heavy over the organisation and securing new funding is problematic in the UK’s current climate where money is hard to come by in a country still reeling from the impact of Brexit, Covid-19, public sector cuts and a precarious economy.  It is credit to the Balık Arts team that they continue to pull together, create an optimistic environment and determinedly continue to seek out new resources to continue our vital work with young people.
