We warmly invite you to visit the I Am Festival 2022 at our Worship Street Hub! Whilst in the festival you will be able to:

– Explore three artist and school collaborations:
– Contribute to a growing interactive, kinetic sculpture made by artist Linda Bell, The Garden and Stormont House schools and play with materials and forms, responding to her practice.
– Decorate and embellish designs by fashion and textile artist Catia Silvestre, Ickburgh School and New Regents College and take home some new ideas for your own clothes.
– Watch a film made by Corali Dance and Jack Tizzard that invites you to get involved in the action, too.
– Watch films submitted by schools and young people, exploring the theme of Unity.
– Meet members of the I Am Team to discuss inclusive practice
