Nikki Charlesworth is a Theatre Designer, Puppeteer/Puppet Maker and recently turned Animator. In her professional life Nikki has worked at the forefront of disabled-led theatre-making contributing to new, ground-breaking work in the sector. In 2021 Nikki won Young Creative Awards, and was also announced as one of the winners of the Evening Standard Future Theatre Fund, in association with TikTok.
Taking place in the former Disney Store, Upper Mall, Victoria Centre (towards the Bus Station exit), during this workshop, you'll find out how Nikki evolved her creative practice into a successful career and have the opportunity to ask questions. There will also be time to get to know and network with other young creatives attending including members of Connecting Notts, a local creative youth forum.
This is an opportunity to be part of Nottingham's thriving creative community and explore how you might build a career using your creative talent. Creative Futures will take place each Wednesday during August (6th, 13th, 20th and 27th) from 4.00 - 6.00pm. Each week will be led by Young Creative Award winners with established creative careers.
This workshop is brought to you by Young Creatives Nottingham (registered charity number 1168804) in collaboration with ChalleNGe and other local creative partners, as part of a Summer Arts Pop Up programme running throughout August. The workshop is funded by Arts Council England.
