Welcome to the International Youth Arts Festival, now in its sixth year and blossoming much like a child into an independent, creative, flourishing thing sometimes with so much life and dynamism we are not sure which way it’s going to run! I am delighted to welcome you all, audiences and participants, to join us in Kingston for what I am sure is going to be the most spectacular festival yet. The magic the festival brings is very special to all of us, allowing our local community and audiences from around the country of all ages to enjoy the talents of the very best of young people’s work from around the world. Young trainee project managers have spent months preparing and programming events for the festival, a team of over 25 students from across Europe are running our press team, 2 phenomenally talented young people created this beautiful brochure and our incredible team of volunteers are the cogs that make the festival dance, working in the production office, backstage, looking after visiting companies and driving our marketing and publicity forwards.

I would like to thank the young people we work with who inspire us every single day; without listening to their ideas this festival would be a far less joyous place. I would also like to give enormous thanks to all the staff, mentors, steering group and trustees who provide support to the young people we work with and share their skills and experiences which allow these ambitious ideas to see the light of day. A huge thanks also goes out to our sponsors, partners and funders without whom Creative Youth’s work would simply not be possible. I hope you all have a wonderful festival. My last words of advice buy a festival pass - it gives you access to every single performance at the festival for an unreasonably cheap price! Come and see our opening concert, Raise the Roof on the 11th July and get a taste for what’s coming up. Mostly. Enjoy yourselves. Eek every moment out. Smile. We only get this once a year. Aniela Zaba Artistic Director Creative Youth International Youth Arts Festival
