TECH(Y)31
TECH(Y)31 is a fun, weekly workshop for 10-12 year olds interested in the technical side of theatre.
Over 10 weeks, training will be provided by Gulbenkian’s technical team to find out about what happens ‘behind the scenes’ and make a performance run smoothly. You will learn about different aspects of technical theatre, including sound, lighting and stage management, through hands-on activities.
TECH(Y)31 also works with the Gulbenkian Youth Theatre, to power their performances.
These workshops are FREE.

ART31 takes its name from Article 31 of the UN Convention on the Rights of a Child, which states that ‘Children have the right to relax and play, and to join in a wide range of cultural, artistic and other recreational activities’.
There are a number of dedicated ART31 groups across Kent. The pilot group started at Gulbenkian, Canterbury, in 2013 and since then other groups have sprung up at Pie Factory Music, Ramsgate and Jasmin Vardimon Company, Ashford, with others in the pipeline. These groups meet regularly to plan ART31 events, as well as develop event management/front of house/marketing skills, meet companies, take part in workshops and see new and exciting artistic work. MEDIA31, SCREEN31, Gulbenkian Uncovered, ART(Y)31, TECH31KENT and TECH(Y)31 are part of ART31.
