Come and celebrate the young people who have been a part of the Rutland Virtual School’s DfE Creative Mentoring Project!

 

This event aims to showcase the creative work of all the young people who have been working with Creative Mentors, as part of the DfE (Department for Education) funded project that Rutland Virtual School has been involved in. We would love as many people as possible who have been involved along the way to join us in recognising the hard work of everyone involved in a fun evening of special activities.

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

All young people under the age of 18 must be accompanied by a responsible and supporting adult as part of their attendance. 

The event will consist of:

  • Welcome from The Mighty Creatives and Rutland Virtual School
  • Two 50-minute creative workshops led by experienced art practitioners
  • A chance to explore the Creative Mentee’s work through a curated exhibition

A presentation ceremony for all young people who have participated in the project so far.
