Programmes that support children and young people interested in working in the creative sector through training, placements and qualifications. These programmes empower them to build skills and unlock their future career pathways and potential.

Work Placements
Pedestrian wants all young people to learn about the different careers on offer in the arts including being a professional artist, arts administration, marketing and project management. And the best way to find out is by getting some practical experience.
We offer work experience for Year 10 pupils and college/ university students where you will learn about the arts and office administration, as well as general experience being in the workplace. If you are interested in doing your work experience with us and/or have a passion for the arts, please feel free to get in touch with us.
