celebrating 20 years (1994-2014)

Eastside is celebrating its 20th Anniversary this year. Over the past 20 years, we have worked with a quarter of a million young people, including some of the capital's most disadvantaged children and helped to launch the creative careers of countless talented young Londoners.

for young filmmakers 16-19

Eastside is working in partnership with the BFI this Autumn to provide young people aged 16-19 with opportunities to be part of the UK's future film industry. Led by industry experts, our course will cover every area of the film industry helping young people to make a career in film, a reality.

and their favourite books...

Eastside's work with children and young people is supported by many well known and respected figures from the arts and media; our celebrity patrons are standing-by to read you a line from their favourite books - but how many of these well loved stories, plays and books can you name...?

and make a real difference!

create with purpose  

Adobe Youth Voices ignites young people's Creative Confidence - the ability to harness creative skills to solve problems - with advanced digital media tools and powerful storytelling techniques. If your school or youth group would like to take part in 2014/15, you can apply now.

and a good practice centre too

Over the last few years Eastside has enabled 199 young people to achieve a Bronze, Silver or Gold Arts Award and helped many more. We are very proud to announce that we have recently been awarded Arts Award Good Practice Centre status 2013-2014, by Trinity College London.
