The Volunteering Futures project got off to a cracking start in early February when a group of 15 new volunteers helped out at Wolverhampton Literature Festival.

During 2020 artist Laura Dicken spoke to 4 creatives for her Creative Connections Commissioned project Turning Points to find out more about creativity in the Black Country and how people view the places they live and the opportunities that are around them. We’ve chosen a few extracts from the conversations to share below.

The full Literature Festival will take place between Friday 31 January and Sunday 2 February and the full programme now announced with tickets on sale.
