Twilight Zone Arts Programme for Young People

Empowering Young Voices through the Arts

The Twilight Zone Project is an inspiring, regional arts programme for young people aged 12-18 who are resident in Health and Social Care facilities across Northern Ireland. Supported by the Public Health Agency NI, the project invites young participants to explore and express their unique perspectives through contemporary art forms, helping them find their voice and contribute to a Health and Social Care system that better serves their needs.

The impact of the Twilight Zone Project is best captured by the words of those who take part. Each piece of art, photo, or song reflects the personal journey and voice of a young person empowered to make a difference.

“Art really helps me. When I create, it’s like I’m putting my thoughts into my hands and out of my head. I feel so much better.”
