Mighty Creatives New Journals Project Website For Cultural Olympiad

The Mighty Creatives are looking to recruit 500 young people to make a personal record of their engagement with the Cultural Olympiad and 2012 Games. Young participants will act as diarists and “citizen” journalists, developing new journalism and media skills and creating an extraordinary moving image, audio and written archive (The People’s Record) from the perspective of young people.
This archive will be deposited in local record off ices, placing the engagement of young people in the build up to, and delivery of, the 2012 Games and Paralympics in a historical context for future generations. 


This exciting project is open to all young people aged 11-21 across the East Midlands. AD Durnin, Programme Manager for the Journals Project, commented “this really is a once in a life-time opportunity, not only to be part of the Cultural Olympiad, but also to play a part in documenting our region and creating a snap-shot of history. We are looking for young people with creative enthusiasm and a desire to learn new skills.
