@FireflyArts are working with our primary five learners to help them to become more confident, creative and resourceful young people. Thank you so much Kirsty and Forest #weektwooutofeightcompleted 🙌

What a great term for creativity! Last week we enjoyed getting a glimpse of the funny, imaginative, talented minds of our new Armadale groups as they showed us that "Armadale's Got Talent" and then locked us in "The Bunker".... eek!

We were Arts and Creativity finalists at the National Youth Work Awards last night for the programmes we carry out in partnership with WLC's HYPE project. So proud to celebrate excellence in youth work Kirsty met Gemma Cairney! @CreativeScots @YouthLinkScot @YTArtsScot

The weekend brought with it the final instalment of Amplify, seeing our three youth theatre groups come together and show what they've been up to.

Congratulations to all involved on three very different and inspiring political performances.

[Firefly Arts @FireflyArts]

Great work from our #Amplify cohort who headed out to Beacon Arts Centre at the weekend as part of our collaboration with Scottish Youth Theatre .
We love working with young people to find new ways to make their voices heard!

We had a great week with the lovely Eva from Bathgate Academy, who joined us for work experience. She learned all about who we are and what we do, got involved in our workshops and even learned how to operate our light and sound systems!

"The argument about funding and investment is not just one about buildings, it is about people, especially the young people of West Lothian, the future of West Lothian. That is who Firefly is investing in."

We couldn't have said it better ourselves!
