About this Event

What is Creative Youth Council?

Designed for and with young people aged 14-18. All sessions are free and take place on the second Saturday of every month, 12-4pm.

We invite young people to develop new creative projects and events, with the chance to roam our fields, use our ceramics and recording studio and work with artists on lots of different projects.

You could create a new podcast or soundscape, make clay sculptures, or develop new events and festivals, at Wysing, for other young people across Cambridgeshire to enjoy.

Why should I join?

Join our creative group meeting monthly on Saturdays to:

  • Collaborate and experiment with artists and meet new friends in a safe and supportive space.
  • Let your imagination run free - share your ideas and express yourself with exciting art projects.
  • Get involved in arts opportunities including creating events, festivals and resources as well as your own art work.
  • Build transferable teamwork and leadership skills to support college, university or job applications.

How can I get the bursary to attend?

As part of the Creative Youth Council, we are able to offer a bursary of £15 to support young people’s attendance at the sessions. This is open to anyone who feels this bursary will help them to attend. For example, to cover the cost of petrol to get to Wysing or help pay towards bringing a packed lunch. You will be sent information on this when you register. You will normally receive the funds within 2 weeks of attending each session.

Please note: Attendees cannot receive the bursary offer as well as free taxi transport, please pick only one of these offers.

Lunch & Refreshments

You will need to bring a packed lunch with you. Please note there are no shops nearby. Drinks and snacks will be provided during the sessions.
