Engaging Young People!
Audioart and Podcasting Workshops started with Libraries Unlimited!
Since November 2024, we have been managing Audio Art and Podcasting workshops in partnership with Ace Holds The Space at Bideford Library, organised by Libraries Unlimited. We aim to expand this exciting initiative for youth engagement. The workshops are lively, tech-focused, engaging, and enjoyable. Participants are creating portfolios that can lead to careers in media, the creative industry, radio, and journalism. Each block of workshops last four weeks and cover:
Audio Art and Introduction to Podcasting
Podcast/Radio Show Broadcasting and Jingle Making
Digital Visual Creation for Media
All necessary technology is available, and the workshops are led by Roshani Carmen Ramass, a radio and media producer from Ace Holds The Space, along with another assistant. If you're interested in enrolling a young person or joining an adult group (in development), please contact us or email Ace Holds The Space: workshops@aceholdsthespace.com.
