Are you a young person with a story to tell, an imagination that has an imagination of itself or would simply like to be part of a creative and welcoming group? Look no further!
Join our Creative Writers Group to learn skills in Spoken Word, Performance Poetry and Playwriting and create your own works to be presented as part of OxBright Festival in July. Participants should be available for all the dates of this project (8, 15, 22, 29 June, 6, 13, 20, 21, 22, 23 24 July).
These workshops will be held at Wolvercote Hub (formerly Wolvercote Young People’s Club) and run for three hours each week. Participants should bring a packed lunch with them, access to a kitchen is available.
We aim to create a welcoming and inclusive space for all young people to flourish and work alongside industry professionals.

The workshops will lead to a performance which will be part of OxBright Festival at The North Wall this summer (20 – 24 July). The Festival would involve workshops, performances from other youth groups, food and lots of fun.
The dates of OxBright Festival are 20 – 24 July, 10am – 4pm every day and it is totally free for your children to be involved in. Ideally, your child would need to be available for the full week but if there is an odd day that you are unavailable then we could still make it work.
