Juice Festival 2010

20 10 Juice Festival 20 – 31 October NewcastleGateshead’s festival for children and young people

www.juicefestival.co.uk

Welcome to Juice!

Juice – NewcastleGateshead’s award-winning festival for children and young people is back for the third year. Packed full of events that celebrate the creativity of young people, the festival is presented in the world-class venues, facilities and open air locations that make NewcastleGateshead such a brilliant place to live, grow up in and visit.

The festival, with its many partners, is proud to commission and present new work by children and young people – opening with Photomapping Our World (p4) and closing with The Journey Home (p25). Don’t miss our three Young Ranters events (p15) plus a fantastic mix of other performances and exhibitions all created by young people.

Juice is all about taking part and across the festival there are inspirational opportunities to try new experiences and develop new skills.

Join bboys from around the world in an action packed Just Jam Weekend (p16); be part of a unique music event in Whaletone Opera (p8) and don’t miss the Tate Movie Project (p12), where you can add your ideas to a new animated film.

For families there are events across NewcastleGateshead during October half term and we’re delighted to welcome back Urban Playground & Gravity Style (a massive hit last year) with their new outdoor show – The Next Level – combining free running with street dance (p28).

And of course, the final weekend makes the most of Halloween, with a pumpkin carving extravaganza (p31) followed by a special Festival Finale Parade (p31) – get dressed up, join in, and keep your eyes peeled… was that Beastie?

Whatever you choose to come and see or do, we look forward to giving you a warm Juice Festival welcome this October. Enjoy!

An exhibition of photographs by children from Gateshead

Running through the underpass, playing in the park, eating tea, watching TV.

Central Station

Presented in partnership with Tyne & Wear Archives & Museums. Supported by Tyne & Wear Archives & Museums Business Partners.

Photomapping Our World was inspired by Kingsmead Eyes, a project also led by Gideon and Crispin involving children in Hackney, London.

Photomapping Our World is on display at Discovery Museum until 2 Jan 2011.

The photographs were all taken during one week in June, coinciding with the start of the 2010 FIFA World Cup. Working with two internationally known photographers: Gideon Mendel and Crispin Hughes, the children took digital cameras home and decided what to photograph. www.twmuseums.org.uk/discovery 4

A group of teenagers do something bad, really bad, then panic and cover the whole thing up. But when they find that the cover-up unites them and brings harmony to their otherwise fractious lives – where’s the incentive to put things right?

Adults £6, Under 18s/Concessions £4

DNA is a poignant and sometimes hilarious tale with a dark heart that has been described as ‘Grange Hill for the Skins generation’.
