Calling all young musicians, dancers, drawers, DJs, technicians, writers, talkers and explorers!

A space for creative young people to come together and make their voices heard.

No experience necessary just curiosity and imagination.

“My daughter has really enjoyed the Bolshee Young Creatives. Such a creative, fun and supportive space for her to explore and express herself. It’s the highlight of her week.”

This Is Our Testimony is a short film created by 2 groups of young people aged 8-14 who live in York.

The piece is an accumulation of 10 weeks’ worth of exploration around the subject of testimony made in collaboration with Bolshee, dogeatcog, Katie Lou McCabe and Young Thugs and supported by Arts Rights Truth.

Together the young creatives explored spoken word, visual art, light projection, soundscapes and verbatim interviews as ways to express their honest opinions about what it is like to be a young person in 2024 and what their demands are for a fairer future.

The result is an ethereal visual and oral testimony that shines a light on the thoughts, feelings and emotions of our children in 2024.
