The Blank Page Project
The Blank Page Project is an exciting programme providing free high-quality creative activities run by professional local artists in our libraries during the school holidays. Our free creative activities, funded by the Department for Education’s Holiday Activity Fund, give 10-16 year olds the chance to express their creativity through a range of mediums.

First launched in March 2023, The Blank Page Project has since had 3,000 workshop bookings with an 89% attendance rate. Read about the impact of this creative programme.
