Programme

Young Creatives

A platform for creativity, expression and change. An ongoing programme by Imaginative Reaction CIC dedicated to celebrating and supporting the creativity of children and young people.

When creativity is supported, confidence grows.

Through exhibitions, workshops and digital showcases, we create inclusive spaces where young people are encouraged to express themselves, explore ideas and feel proud of their creativity – regardless of experience, background or ability.

All opportunities are designed to be accessible, welcoming and non-competitive.
