Richard Clark, chief executive of The Mighty Creatives, said, “Our summer events celebrate the vibrant impact creativity makes on the lives of children young people in the East Midlands. Sharing work from the world-leading Creative Partnerships programme, schools will see how creativity has helped children and young people love learning in schools, children’s centres and children’s homes, raising levels of attendance, achievement and ambition.

“As Creative Partnerships draws to a close, these creative lessons provide a valuable route map to promoting a new generation of creative children and young people, ready to take on the world.”

The event will be opened by Hasmita Chavda, an inspirational young person who is also a TMC board member.
Hasmita’s bio is available online.

Following this there will be a choice between workshops led by young people showcasing their creative projects and open space discussions exploring creative learning.

Children and young people will also create an installation from recycled materials to reflect and celebrate their achievements and to imagine a ‘world of endless possibilities’.
