About this Event
Discover how creativity can help young people move away from crime in this hands-on, thought-provoking event. You’ll hear a short talk, watch two powerful short films, and take part in an interactive art workshop designed to help you see things through the eyes of young people going through arts-based justice programmes.
The session challenges the idea that the arts are a “soft option”, and instead highlights their real power to inspire behavioural change and encourage new paths forward. Put yourself in the shoes of a young person facing justice and explore how creative approaches can support rehabilitation and positively shape young lives.
This event is part of the ESRC Festival of Social Science 2025 and was made possible thanks to funding from the Economic and Social Research Council (ESRC), which is part of UK Research and Innovation (UKRI)
