Creative SPARKS MIXED ARTS GROUP

Join our Creative Sparks Mixed Arts group to explore a wide range of creative activities, including visual art, filmmaking, animation, writing, music making and more! 

This group offers a new exciting opportunity at Mortal Fools for young people to be creative, but who might not want to commit to our youth theatre performances (but you can join if you are already part of our youth theatre too!) 

Our Creative Sparks Mixed Arts group is for ages 10+ 

At Creative Sparks you will learn new skills, meet new friends, and build your confidence in a relaxed and supportive space. There will be lots of opportunities to make creative work together and showcase it at our events. ​
Key details

📍Location: Ashington Family Hub (​NE63 9EF)
📅Days: Thursdays during term time
⌚Time: 5:30pm – 7pm 

Sign Up: Complete the form below and one of our staff members will be in touch

Access information

We run the Creative Sparks group in a flexible way so that young people with different needs or circumstances can take part more easily. Our friendly Mortal Fools practitioners are trained and experienced in working with young people with a diverse range of needs. We will support all members to unlock their creative potential! 
​

Members are welcome and encouraged to attend as many sessions as they can, but we recognise that this is not always possible for all young people. If a member is unable to attend a session/s but would like to come back, they will not lose their space during that school term and can return when they are able to.

The venue is wheelchair accessible. 
“At Mortal Fools we have an inclusive approach, and we are dedicated to helping different young people access creative opportunities.  
I am excited to see how the Creative Sparks group will help us better support young people who may face barriers to attending arts sessions, including young carers, disabled young people, neurodivergent young people, and anyone looking for a creative outlet!”   ​
- Kate Jeffries, Lead Artistic Practitioner
