We love getting out and about in Ashington and across the North East, giving people of all ages opportunities to embrace their creative side, unlock their imaginations and have a go at something new.
You can often find us at events like community fairs, pride events and school events running FREE accessible arts workshops and chatting about our young people's groups. We also run our own community events and activities including in school holidays.
Previously, we have run free workshops in animation, drama, crafts, visual arts, jewellery making and more, working with many fantastic professional guest artists.
Sometimes our activities are drop in and sometimes you will need to book a free place.
