About

Mind The Gap is a new night in East London which aims to promote not only the best new homegrown talent but also the inclusion and professional development of young people. The monthly music nights are entirely designed and promoted by young people, with guidance and mentoring from creative professionals. The result is a far cry from a standard ‘gig’, the emphasis being on cultural and artistic diversity, incorporating all forms of artistic expression from music to spoken word to comedy and visual art. The only common theme is new talent.

Mind The Gap forms part of a social initiative aiming to promote the professional development of young people in London and build community inclusion.

Through a creative mentoring scheme, our goal is to provide –

Opportunities, role models and guidance for young people;

Leadership skills development and communicative awareness to professionals;

Ideas, innovation and resources to creative companies.
