Welcome to Juice! Autumn half term in NewcastleGateshead is all about celebrating the creativity of children and young people. Juice Festival – which is produced by NewcastleGateshead Initiative – welcomes families from across the country to enjoy ten days of inspiring events and experiences. This year we’re delighted to welcome the Port of Tyne on board as headline sponsor of Juice 2013 and we hope you’ll all take part in capturing Juice as part of their Reﬂect photo and ﬁlm competition.

Carol Bell, Head of Culture and Major Events at NewcastleGateshead Initiative

This year’s festival takes place from Friday 25 October – Sunday 3 November and we are now six years old! Juice Festival 2013 showcases 35 projects, all of which celebrate the creativity of children and young people and the festival offers a wide range of innovative ways for children, young people and their families to engage in the arts. We’ve dreamt up a wonderful programme for you and you’ll see some of the events have been creatively inspired by the dreams and aspirations of children and young people. The success of Juice Festival is down to our fantastic partners. We work in partnership with over 30 regional and national cultural organisations and venues to make the festival happen. We are also very proud to be working in partnership with ﬁve local schools that started their two-year journey with us this year. Our new national partners for 2013 include Manchester International Festival, Battersea Arts Centre, Walker Books and award-winning children’s theatre company Oily Cart. Our new regional partnerships for 2013 include November Club, Theatre Royal, Changemakers, Five Ring Circus, Digital Voices and TakeOff Festival.

Don’t forget your camera! Reflect, the Port of Tyne’s photo & film competition is open now and there are some great prizes, including a special award for entrants aged 16 or under. All you have to do is capture the North East as you see it, in film or photo. You can use your camera, your mobile phone or a video camera and with so much happening throughout Juice Festival it’s the perfect time to get snapping and filming! For more information on how to enter, visit www.portoftyne.co.uk/reflect

We are so excited to bring you a programme that is jam packed full of exciting events, exhibitions, performances and workshops. We hope that you’ll join us, and the hundreds of children and young people who have been working on Juice, in bringing the 2013 festival to life.

Young Evaluators

This year the festival is immensely proud to be a commissioning partner for ZigZag ZigZag, a brand-new piece of children’s storytelling devised and directed by Belgian director Inne Gorris, which premiered as part of Manchester International Festival in July. ZigZag ZigZag will make its regional premiere in Hilton Primary Academy School, Newcastle this October.

In partnership with Bridge North East and TakeOff Festival we have recruited ten young people to evaluate the festival and report back to us on our programme. The results of this project will be made available at www.juicefestival.co.uk in January 2014. look out for the team across the festival and don’t forget to tell them what you think of Juice!
