whiteweave arts
The things one has heard or seen are threads of life, and if they pull them carefully from the confused distaff of memory, any who will can weave them.
- W. B. Yeats
Weaving something new.
Writing can make people smile or shiver, notice more in the world around them, capture a thought or moment. It can make businesses fly or help them remember who they are and what matters to them. It can be a way of informing, externalising, processing, or even making a change.
Max Parfitt is a producer, writer, and content creator based in London. After studying music at Oxford University, he worked with the Learning and Engagement department at Glyndebourne, before coming to Wild Arts as an Assistant Producer at the start of its second season in 2023, and taking over as Lead Producer in 2024. He has since produced two summer tours for the organisation as well as overseeing their annual programme, and managing the charity’s growth – building from 12 performances and 3,000 audience members in 2023, to more than 70 performances and 15,000 audience members in 2025, and developing a nationwide outreach programme.
Max remains a regular collaborator with writers group 26 – editing their newsletter, and sitting on their board.
Max’s freelance work prior to Wild Arts included work for Thaxted Festival and for outreach charity Scribeasy, the latter using words and writing to build imagination, creativity, and confidence in children and young parents with special educational needs.
