Futures For All: Discover Creative Careers with Margate Pride | Events, Festivals & Arts

This remote insight day introduces young people to careers in the creative industries, with a particular focus on festivals, arts and community projects. It is designed to show how creative ideas are turned into real experiences that people can enjoy, and how different roles work together to make that happen.

Participants will hear from someone working across festivals, arts and community projects, gaining an insider’s view of the sector and the chance to ask questions about career pathways. The session also explores what creative jobs involve beyond the finished product, helping participants understand the teamwork, planning and problem-solving behind creative work.

The day includes a practical challenge where participants work together to design an event or project their community needs, then pitch their ideas and receive feedback from an experienced creative professional. Alongside this, they can build confidence in creativity, communication, collaboration and presenting, while getting inspiration for where their own interests could lead next.
