Young People/Circuit
Circuit
We are a group of 15-25 year olds who experiment with different ways of experiencing and making art, through organising and running creative events for other young people. We work with Kettle’s Yard and Wysing Arts Centre on projects including live music, performances, workshops, exhibitions and lots more!
If you like being creative and want to learn new skills and socialise then join the group by contacting circuit@wysingartscentre.org or calling 01954 718881.
