Creative Kernow, based at Krowji, is the umbrella organisation for the following nine projects. Together we support the production, promotion and distribution of work by creative practitioners in Cornwall because we believe in creativity's transformative power and want more people to benefit from it.

NOVA Festival

Nova Festival is a chamber music festival based in St Austell, set up in 2021 by Joseph Barker as a means for him and his Cornish colleagues to showcase young classical talent and contribute to Cornwall’s musical and cultural landscape. In 2024 the festival returns to its main venue, Wheal Martyn Museum, with a programme more diverse than ever, showcasing young Cornish musicians and hosting high quality performances of the great chamber works in the classical canon.
