Messages from our Arts and Cultural PartnersSheffield Doc Fest |

Brought to you by Sheffield DocFest is the Community Programme, a brand new programme of screenings, workshops and talks that tell the stories of communities across the world. It's about thoughts, ideas and manifestos made possible by people coming together - our world viewed up close and from a distance; the bonds that stick us together; the stories that tell our history, our present, our culture and the places we call home. Part of this is a new programme for schools and people working with young people in Sheffield, as well as a programme of inclusive cinema especially programmed for neuro-diverse people in Sheffield. If you or your school would like to get involved you can find out more here. |

Create Sheffield partners Rosie Carnall and Kate Halliwell are working with DECSY (Development Education Centre South Yorkshire) to offer a number of funded Philosophy for Communities sessions. These offer a group (of any and all ages) the chance to engage in creative, critical, collaborative and caring thinking to explore big questions together. This is a fun and stimulating way for people to express themselves and learn from others. If you are working with, or are part of, a group that likes discussing ideas and would like to try a new way of getting into a topic please do get in touch. We will be offering a number of free sessions to community groups. Get in touch if you are interested. |
