Biggest Birthday Events Yet This August

Waterford Youth Arts are planning their biggest 25th birthday event yet, taking place on the weekend of August 20th to 22nd. Everybody in Waterford can expect oodles of fun events performed by the youths of WYA and its past members. Nearly all the events are free to the public and it’s beginning to look like a great weekend of performances with ex-members returning from the UK and the US to take part. There will be public shows of theatre performances, dance performances, public readings of plays, outdoor street theatre, art exhibitions, creative writing and a revival of the ‘Lark in the Park’ – after a 25 year absence. Much more is being planned and we’ll keep you posted on final details of the party weekend so watch this space. You can also keep yourself updated with events through our website, www.waterfordyoutharts.com.

Battle It Out For The Arch Factor

Waterford Youth Arts is organizing a Proms night for all the members of the arts company. The main theme of the night is Hollywood Red Carpet and they will be graced by the ‘paparazzi’ while entering the Forum. On this night, the youths of the organization are battling it out for The Arch Factor, where each contestant will be doing their thing and showing off their skills to impress WYA’s three ‘very tough’ judges. The winning contestants will be crowned The Arch Factors most talented. Members should get their glad rags on for Saturday, July 3^rd in the Forum, as there is a special prize made especially by WYA for the best-dressed red carpet character.
