Southside Youth Hub is set to host Sound and Vision, an event celebrating local music, art and creativity, on Saturday 20th June, between 11am – 2pm.
The free event is open to all, and is being organised by the Youth Hub, part of Bath & North East Somerset Council’s Youth Connect service, in partnership with Bath Festivals, CURO, DNA Arts and a host of other local agencies and voluntary groups.
It will include: live music by young people; the launch of a CD by Southside Music Project; the premier of a video called ‘Get Some Footage’ by DNA Arts; art displays; a free barbecue; art workshops and displays; mural painting; children’s activities; prize bingo; street dancing; face painting and more.
Dave Wiles, Bath Team leader for Youth Connect said: “This event will demonstrate the arts are alive and well in in the Whiteway/Twerton area of Bath.
“We are so proud of the young people whose creativity, confidence and self-esteem we have seen grow through their engagement in the arts and music and this will be a great day to show case their talent.”
Hazel Plowman from Bath Festivals added: “We are delighted to be part of the Sound and Vision event.
“Our Music Leader has been working with young people at Southside for the past nine months and this is a really exciting opportunity for these young people to share their music with the community.”
Youth Connect provides a range of services for young people, from positive activities and advice through to individual support for those who need it the most for moving on into adulthood and work or training.
