About the Peformances
Umbrella Singer's Showcase The Bristol Umbrella Singers are an inclusive choir - formed in 2017 by Music Practitioner Kate Staniforth. For their showcase they have chosen some of their favourite songs to perform, which they hope everyone enjoys (and joins in)!
AIM Writer's Showcase Join AIM's creative writing group as they share work from their two books, The Mermaid's Hair is Water and The Everyday. Art in Motion (AIM) is an organisation that collaborates with learning-disabled and neurodiverse artists to make artwork. We champion inclusivity and creativity, opening doors to the arts and increasing belonging within the artist community. We provide opportunities for individuals to develop their art practice, learn new skills, broaden their experience, and showcase their work through exhibitions and events.
Jemma's Showcase Sarah Howard has partnered with a member of the People's Voice project Jemma, to put together drama sketches on accessible information. This will be followed by a short Q+A and workshop with the audience.
