Are you curious about performance? Passionate about the environment? Do you want a safe space to develop your skills with like-minded people?
The New Creatives is a free annual programme for young people in Peterborough, running weekly from September to May. It offers a supportive group environment for anyone who wants to develop their creative skills and make a change for the local environment.
New for 2025/26, we're offering two pathways for young people to get involved in New Creatives: the Youth Programme (ages 14-19) for those interested in creativity and performance, and the Young Leaders programme (ages 20-24) for those who want to learn how to lead and facilitate creative sessions.

Term-by-term commitment means you can try it for one term and decide if you want to continue. No pressure to stay for the whole year, although you're very welcome to!
