What's On
Next Gen
Join an innovative new group for artistic 16-24 year olds who are interested in pursuing a creative career, who want to meet with like-minded people and explore opportunities in the arts.

Next Gen. is all about you taking ownership of your future and making the decisions to lead a fulfilling creative career. We will meet one evening a month at West Studios – a beautiful space for the creative community, and as a group you will decide what creative workshops you do with professional practitioners, who the guest speakers will be and what cultural trips you’d like to go on. You will get first hand experience of managing a community project and professional mentoring from the Junction Arts team.
Sessions are free to attend, we can also cover travel expenses and we provide snacks and drinks!
Here are upcoming dates of meet ups, anyone 16-24 is welcome to join. If you can, please email or call Jemma before to let us know you’re coming jemma@junctionarts.org or 01245 209219.
