Zion Arts Centre has embraced Web 2.0 by launching a new interactive website. Developed by charity web specialists IChameleon, the site aims to encourage young people to get online and achieve their creative potential.

The new site features the usual details of events, projects, facilities and opportunities, plus it also gives the audience a great platform to showcase their own projects and make their opinions heard via the online forum. A new youth panel has been set up, made up of 12 children with different artistic skills and interests, which will take the lead on encouraging users to get involved.

“We are really excited about our new site because it opens up the venue to achieve its mission beyond the physical bounds of the actual building,” enthused Zion’s Business and Audience Development Office, Caroline Boyd.

Stuart Johnson, Managing Director of IChameleon, added: “We are delighted to be involved with Zion Arts – an iconic Manchester institution who now have a site that embraces and involves the community.”
