folly's latest Pocket Movie Making workshop for young people aged between 7 and 14 will be delivered in collaboration with the BBC and funded by Blackburn with Darwen Borough Council arts services.

Young people between the ages of 7 and 14 are invited to book onto the "Me and My Movie" workshop which will take place from 10am-4pm at the BBC Radio Lancashire Open Centre on Darwen Road, Blackburn on Monday August 13th.

folly's Creative Director Kathryn Lambert said "We're delighted to be able to work with the BBC to further young people's engagement with art and technology. Creativity has a huge part to play in nurturing a technologically literate society, and we're pleased that with workshops like Me and My Movie it can be fun too!"

Me and My Movie is part of a national initiative by CBBC and Blue Peter to encourage young people to develop their creative skills.
