Welcome to the third meeting of our Creative Activists project.
We are delighted to be restarting our Creative Activists project this Autumn. We’re looking for creative people aged 18-25, who are interested in arts, crafts and activism to join the group and help us programme a museum open day for Holocaust Memorial Day 2024. It’s a great opportunity to meet new people, work with professional artists and develop creative skills.
In this session we will be discussing the theme behind Holocaust Memorial Day 2024: “Fragility and Freedom”. We’ll look at different interpretations of the theme and explore ways in which we can respond to it creatively.
No artistic experience necessary. Just bring yourself and an open mind!
WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW
The project is aimed at anyone aged 18 to 25, who is interested in arts, activism and creating powerful acts of sharing and connection with local communities.
