After a successful pilot in 2021/22, The Pearce Institute in Govan are delighted to announce the return of Pride over Prejudice, a year long youth arts project exploring and challenging sectarianism, racism and bigotry and culminating in a community performance event.
During the course of POP 2024, The PI’s community arts team will work with young people aged 9-16, in weekly workshop groups across five areas of Glasgow; Ibrox, Parkhead, Govan, Toryglen and Maryhill. The 90 min sessions each week will be led by a range of arts tutors from drama, visual arts, dance and multimedia, with the core aim being to use the arts to explore and challenge sectarianism and to celebrate difference and cultural diversity.
