Our Creative Story
Since 2012 we have been delivering a range of creative classes and opportunities for children and young people in our community.
We started out with one weekly Arts & Crafts class and over the years we have bloomed into a vibrant hub of creativity, offering children and young people the chance to explore the arts, make friends, build confidence and learn new skills.
We believe that the arts are for everyone and we love sharing our passion for the arts with you.
In 2021 we became a registered charity and we continue to deliver a wide range of weekly creative classes, holiday activities and workshops in our community and you might even have seen us delivering our 'Positive Creations' project in your school.
Find out more about the classes on offer and we can't wait to see you at class soon!

Over the Past 3 years we have worked in partnership with the Essentia Foundation to offer our incredible Easter Film Making Camp, where young people learned all about the film making process, industry and worked together to create their own short films from scratch in just 5 days!
