An installation unleashing the boundless wisdom of youth

Touring South & East Lincolnshire from January 2025

 

Ready to be seen and heard, the powerful words of young people from across South & East Lincolnshire have been released to share their truth and inspire the community!

In October 2024, Zest ran workshops for over 400 young people aged 9-18 across South & East Lincolnshire. Our aim? To create space for young people in East Lindsey, Boston Borough, and South Holland to reflect on their experiences and release the voice of a generation. Co-led by local young people, these workshops enabled the next generation to share their thoughts and feelings about anything and everything—from the importance of unity to mental health tips and the universe’s big questions.

Their words have now been turned into vibrant artworks on huge flags, ready to be toured to cultural centres, communities, and events across the region!

Refresh South & East Lincolnshire will place the voices of young people at the heart of their community, bringing colour and conversation to the places they call home!
