The Aberfeldy Stories project 2025
This Spring and Summer we are shining a light on people’s stories in our Poplar neighbourhood and beyond, through workshops in creative writing, music making, podcasting, comedy, performance, radio and storytelling.
Using our emergent approach, we are inviting you to co-design the programme with us. We want to know about your interests, skills you’d like to develop, stories you’d like to tell and ways in which to tell them. Together we will work on creating a film, a podcast series, a book, a music video, a collection of short stories, a radio broadcast, an anthem, a comedy night, a theatre performance, a guided tour… Everything is possible!
The project will begin in April 2025 with a series of podcasting workshops and more all the way through August, culminating with a big event in September 2025, where you will be able to showcase your work.
By taking part in the Aberfeldy Stories project you will:
- Gain transferable skills such as communication and public speaking
- Make new social connections in a fun and creative environment
- Discover artistic skills and passions that you didn’t even know existed in you
- Build confidence to flourish in any professional or social situation
Who is the project for?
18+ residents of Aberfeldy Village and wider Tower Hamlets.
When is it?
April – August 2025 workshops, September – the showcase. Exact dates to be confirmed.
