Workshops,
Community Outreach,
& Weeklong events
As always, an important element of the festival are our events for children and
young people, our educational workshops and our work in the community.
As you will see many of these events are free, and those that aren’t, are a bargain!
Just take a look at some of the events we have on offer...
