Our producers, Shireenah Ingrem and Veniece Patel had their first opportunity in a work placement to assist children and young people perform their Carnival dances in front of each other. 7 school groups from Walsall (Key Stage 2) performed in the New Art Gallery on July 14th along with 5 groups of children and young people from ACE dance and music class programme.

Over the following blog posts you can see how their work placements offered new skills in how to develop producer skills for Caribbean Carnival dance and music events along with partner ACE dance and music and Black Voices.  Catch some of their enthusiasm and observations!
