Are you interested in facilitating workshops? Or running a gig night? Or just curious about a career in cultural events?

In this creative workshop from producer Annie Harrison you’ll gain sector knowledge about creating and running cultural events which you can apply to your own work and life. Additionally, you’ll gain new ideas, skills and connections to other young creatives aged 18-25, in the region.

The session will take place at the Fitzwilliam Museum where you’ll have the opportunity to have a tour of the museum from a young Cambridge artist and producer.

Arts make life better

Norfolk & Norwich Festival brings tens of thousands of people together in celebration – it has been doing this for over 250 years. Through our May Festival and our year-round arts education work, focusing on children and young people, we lead and support celebration, creativity and curiosity in communities across Norfolk and the region.

This year we begin an exciting new initiative, Festival Connect & Create that will bring creative opportunities to those schools and communities with least provision. Creativity transforms people’s lives. It builds cohesive communities, develops vital skills and supports health and wellbeing. We want more people to have access to creative opportunities.

Please consider donating to support and develop this work. With your help we can increase access to the life changing power of the arts.
