Holiday Activities
Over the years, we have lead holiday activites with youth clubs, cultural venues, seasonal events, and independently at our company home of Parndon Mill. We specialise in imaginative activities, themed around theatre and film.

Smartphone Filmmaking
We have run 1 day, 2 day and week long filmmaking workshops for a range of ages. Whether young people enjoy being in front or behind the camera, Smartphone filmmaking brings them together and offers the experience of creating a fully formed short film, utelising our staff's real world experience, Matipo Art's costume and prop stores, and our participants amazing imaginations!
Junk Fashion
Junk Fashion is a fantastic way of repurposing what you have, and getting expressive! Adaptable for all ages, this activity utilises our staff's experience of costume design, giving participants free reign to explore drapery, simple construction techniques, and even sewing, depending on age and setting. Junk Fashion can be run as a drop in, 1 hour, or full day session.
Play in a Day
Perhaps it goes without saying, but... we love to be dramatic! We offer a variety of performance based activities for all ages, ranging from themed hour sessions, to play in a day, to play in a week courses. We love opening up the creative process and facilitating the creation of new performances with all ages.
We can also adapt our educational workshops to suit holiday settings. See our list of educational workshops by clicking here.
