Unticketed Event

Derwent Valley Arts passionately believes in promoting the arts to all of the people in our region, and local children are at the top of that list. In the lead-up to the festival we ran a series of story writing workshops with schools amd local authors Emily Conolan and Alyssa Bermudez to coax fantastic and hilarious tales from the children of the valley. With the help of local businesses these stories, in both written and graphic form, are in the process of being compiled into the inaugural Derwent Valley Writer’s Festival Magazine. Please join us at the Festival Hub as Emily and Alyssa present this memorable document to Derwent Valley Mayor Michelle Dracoulis.

All the children who contributed to this publication will receive it free of charge.
