Young People/Circuit
Circuit
We are a group of 18-25 year olds who experiment with different ways of experiencing and making art, through organising and running projects and creative events for other young people. We work with Kettle’s Yard and Wysing Arts Centre on activities including workshops, exhibitions, films, performances, live music and lots more!
If you’re 18-25 years old, like being creative and want to meet people and learn new skills, Circuit is for you.
