Unspoken Colours is an engaging series of art workshops designed specifically for neurodivergent young people aged 16 to 25. Hosted at the YMCA Community Hub in The Cresset, Peterborough, these sessions offer a dedicated space to explore identity and build community through the power of creativity. Participants have the unique opportunity to work together on a collaborative mural, turning individual expression into a shared piece of public art. The workshops run every Wednesday evening from 6:30 PM to 8:30 PM, starting on February 4th. The program is led by Amanda Rigby, a professional artist and illustrator with extensive experience in school and community-based projects. Her work focuses on collaboration and large-scale art, with a philosophy centered on making the creative process joyful and inclusive. Under her guidance, the workshops aim to help young people feel seen and supported as they discover new ways to express themselves. Supported by Arts Council England and the YMCA Trinity Group, the event is free to join via the official sign-up link. Sign Up: linktr.ee/YMCAYouthCresset
