100% of the proceeds raised through ticket sales for this event will go towards Impact Arts’ creative programmes for vulnerable children in deprived communities across Scotland.

Impact Arts is a community arts charity, changing lives through art. Since 1994, the organisation has been tackling inequalities, addressing poverty, and fostering social change by supporting people of all ages across Scotland who are living in areas of deprivation and/or facing disadvantages or barriers to progress in life.

By purchasing a ticket, attendees will be helping the charity continue to make a difference and enrich the lives of children in Scotland.

About the host

Attendees will learn the tricks of the trade from multitalented artist Sean Pickering.

Sean is Glasgow-based artist and award-winning cabaret performer who's been entertaining audiences for over a decade. He is a Creative Lead here at Impact Arts and his favourite thing about his work is guiding people through new creative processes and seeing their confidence soar. Outside of Impact Arts, he performs and produces drag and cabaret events, teaches dance, and creates adult pantomimes and musicals.

This event will be the perfect addition to a fun-filled date or day out with family and friends, or as part of a birthday celebration or hen party.

This is the first time Impact Arts is programming its own creative workshop open to the general public at The Boardwalk. If successful, it will be the first of many fun and artistic events hosted by Impact Arts to raise funds for its life-changing work.
