Drawing with the aim to foster integration between local communities and the refugees and asylum seekers in Sunderland. As a child, we all remember making marks, whether in the sand or on the margins of a page. Why not come along to rekindle this childhood passion and see where it takes you.
Join Padma Rao to learn techniques of drawing and mark making to express yourself; and create a piece for public display as part of the Black History Month.

An opportunity for men and women aged 65+, living independently, to work with a talented choreographer to co-produce and cocurate their own dance works. Not enough older people have the chance to improve their balance, strength and flexibility on the dance floor.
Working with talented choreographer and dance artist Nadia Iftkhar (Company of Others), your confidence will improve and your fear of falling may reduce – and you’ll meet new, like- minded people.
No previous experience needed – this is a chance to have fun, get fit and make friends.
Find out more during two tasters sessions on Tuesday 12th September and Friday 15th September.
