How the project works:
Curious Youth Arts Group was established to create a safe space where LGBTQIA+ and/or gender non-conforming young people aged 11-15 year old feel supported and comfortable to connect with one another whilst exploring their creativity.
The group is the perfect place to meet new friends, try out new art forms with guest artists and take part in fun creative activities!
