Creative Careers Week 2024

Young people are unlocking their creative potential through our series of arts career events in Nuneaton & Bedworth, Warwickshire.

Shout Out for the Arts’ Youth Boards have been working hard to program a week of events for their peers.

They discussed and explored what young people wanted from the arts in Nuneaton & Bedworth and this is what they came up with.

Their creativity, their ideas, their week!

Young Artists Takeover

As part of Kids in Museums Takeover Day, young people will take over GRIT Art Central in Nuneaton, turning it into their own gallery! Their exhibition will showcase street art murals designed by students from Park Lane Primary School in Nuneaton and other young emerging artists from the area. Come on down to GRIT Art Central on Friday 22nd November to check-out their work.

Youth Creative Development

Last, but by no means least, Creative Careers Week ends with a large networking meet up at The Abbey Theatre, where all eyes will be on developing young people’s creativity!

If you are aged 16-29 and interested in film, art, photography, drawing or drama, then this is for you. Join this FREE meet up day to unlock your creative potential.

Meet like-minded people, join interactive activities, develop skills and get advice for future creative jobs.

Find out more and reserve your space for free.

“Beware! The creative youth descend on Nuneaton! This is a great opportunity for young people – to explore and develop their creative side, meet people and also consider a creative career.”
