WOW Press release
Writing on the Wall invites young people who want to be rappers, poets and performers to come and join their ‘Liverpool Young Writers’ Project, and put themselves in with a chance to perform alongside top UK artists in a final showcase in May.
Writing on the Wall is running a project aimed at helping 11-19 yr olds discover and showcase their talents, writing and performing their own material, based on exploring their identity and the city’s heritage.
Funded by the Heritage Lottery, the project runs a series of workshops and field trips designed to inspire creativity and help young people work on finding their voice, and understanding how to structure lyrics and poetry for performance and publication.
Young people will get to perform with national UK artists Sway and Skinnyman The Picket on Friday 30th May 2008
The project invites newcomers along to a special mini-showcase where they can join up and get involved in this exciting programme of activities.
The mini-showcase, featuring local artist Young KOF, takes place on:
Thursday 13th March
