Over two months, explore your inner apple, berry, and banana in this fun drama, arts & crafts, and film project inspired by the colourful world of fruits! You’ll create vibrant characters and costumes based on different fruits, embracing the creativity and diversity of nature’s harvest. Through the art of drama, you’ll bring your fruity alter-egos to life, and each week we’ll record film vignettes capturing their unique stories.

At the end of our adventure, we’ll gather for a special film-sharing event in March, where you and your friends can enjoy the completed film and celebrate your creative accomplishments. (Date to be confirmed)

No experience is required, and you are welcome to join us whenever it suits your schedule!

This project is part of the Grow Green – Grow Well initiative, a collaborative effort between Dende Collective and HCGA, aimed at promoting community well-being through drama and the arts. We are proud to be funded by the Westminster Healthy Communities Fund.
