Arts Richmond Young Writers Festival.
Arts Richmond Presents: The Young Writers Finalists Presentation Afternoon
Join us for an afternoon of celebrating the work of our Young Writers finalists.
We received over 790 entries into this year's competition. We have now compiled a presentation of the finalists' written pieces that have made it through.
We had two themes this year: 'Something Extraordinary' and 'My World'. Join us to see our young actors bring to life the extraordinary work submitted by the borough's children.
This annual event is supported by a well-known author and our valued patron, Anthony Horowitz.
The date is Sunday, 15th March at 4.00 pm (Doors Open at 3.30 pm ) at The Exchange, Twickenham
We have also published an anthology of all the children's work, which will be available for pre-order or on sale on the day.
