Join one of our Creative Mentors, Mary Bonam, as she shares how she uses drama and theatre-based skills in her practice with children and young people.

This session is completely free for members of The Mighty Creatives’ Creative Mentoring pool and has been made bespoke to our Creative Mentoring programme. This is an optional training session.

This session is an opportunity to learn from Mary how she uses drama activities to help young people understand the world around them. This will also be an opportunity to meet other Creative Mentors and share ideas and inspiration.

Light refreshments and lunch will be included in the day, so please let us know of any dietary requirements.

We only have a limited number of spaces, so please book early to avoid disappointment!
