We offer a programme of workshops for Creatives, focusing on developing craft and expanding skills. We want to do everything we can to make sure that the creative talent of our region is able to develop, thrive, and make careers from a base here. You can see a list of our upcoming workshops below, as well as past workshops.

Making work for Outdoor Arts Festivals with Matt Evans – Wednesday 29 April, 3pm – 5pm
In this workshop, Head of Festivals & Sites at the Hippodrome Matt Evans, will talk you through how you can develop ideas for outdoor/public space, commissioning, key production realities – thinking about weather, environment, technical limitations and working for mixed and first-time audiences.
