Delivered by Dipped In Creativity
In 2022, the Foundation for Future London has awarded a grant to Dipped In Creativity for its project “#BRINGINGUSBACK Open Mic Night Event” for people in Hackney and Waltham Forest through our Small Grant Scheme.
#BRINGINGUSBACK Open Mic Night is a Youth-Led ‘Open Mic’ Event for local upcoming artists, creatives, and residents between the ages of 16-30 in Hackney and Walthamstow.
The Small Grant Scheme is part of our new Westfield East Bank Creative Futures Fund, funded by Westfield Stratford City.
The project meets three of our scheme’s key themes, Employment Opportunities, Learning Opportunities and Young People.
#BRINGINGUSBACK Open Mic is a Youth-Led ‘Open Mic’ Event for local upcoming artists, creatives, and residents between the ages of 16-30 in Hackney and Walthamstow.
The main aim of these events is to celebrate the unique and creative talent of all young people across the different boroughs in London through events.
We would like to inspire and connect young people through these two events, by showcasing their creativity in all its forms welcoming poets, dancers, singers, rappers, musicians, and DJs- whatever their creative expression maybe!
We will co-produce and deliver this project with Hackney and Walthamstow young people aged 16-25, who will help us lead on the planning and delivery of the events taking on different roles and responsibilities.
To take part, please email info@dippedincreativity.co.uk or contact 07883563328.
Young people aged 16-25 seeking work experience can register to join the DICE TEAM and gain paid work opportunities for both events.
