PROGRAMMES
Our programmes are longer-term experiences designed to support young people, explore complex topics, and develop artistic skills. They are for young people (usually between the ages of 11-30) in East London.
SKAPED tailors and co-designs its workshops and programmes; our skilled facilitators work closely with community members to shape each workshop to the needs of our participants, ensuring that young people get the most out of their experience.
We deliver uniquely relatable creative educational programming that facilitates a personal and
collective exploration of self-worth, community building, and social change issues.
We have run a diverse range of projects exploring issues of gender inequality, discrimination, racism, artivism and gentrification, all in
non-judgmental peer-group settings.

COMMUNITY ARTIVISM
A 3-month FREE programme where young people explore personal identities, and learn about the power of Artivism. They develop creative skills, and receive a small grant to create an artwork that will be part of a collaborative public exhibition.
LET'S TALK GENDER EQUALITY
Our multi week programme, for young people in the East-London boroughs. During the programme they explore gender, self, and identity through poetry, painting, photography, and relatable speakers.
ME AND MY COMMUNITY
A creative photography project, where using photography, human rights workshops and peer learning, young people are empowered to explore issues, learn new skills.
DECOLONISING WOMEN'S SPACES
For Women's History Month 2023, we began taking a look at women’s spaces, through a decolonial lens. Throughout March, we used art as a language of decolonisation and connection ending with a community potluck.
RECLAIM YOUR SPACE
A week-long programme designed to help young girls recognise that they have a place in sport and movement.
