We began our young person-led Make It Happen in April 2022. We worked with students from John Spence Community High School over eight weeks and participants formed ideas for a project set in the Georgian Era. Researching the era as they went, participants developed skills in artist recruitment, sticking to a budget and the type of roles involved in project planning.
Having completed the training, group members have since put their new skills and ideas into action, working with local artists to bring their event to life.
