Young people to share the hidden stories from their streets.
FA'MA is a series of unexpected events that bring the voices of young people to life.
In partnership with Gwasanaeth Ieuenctid Gwynedd, it gives young people in rural communities in North West Wales the opportunity to collaborate with professional artists to create their own perspective of where they live.
Making the familiar, unfamiliar
Each project culminates in a live sharing event for the whole community to witness what the young people have to say - and get the chance to see the world through new eyes.
Over the past few years, FA'MA events have taken place in Nefyn, Bala, Dolgellau and Bethesda - with the next one set to be held in Porthmadog in November 2026.
Following collaborations with artists Melangell Dolma, Gwenno Llwyd Till and Ed Holden this year, this event will feature readings from a script co-created with pupils from Ysgol Eifionydd, alongside music and film work inspired by sessions at the town’s Youth Clubs.
It will be an intimate evening celebrating the streets of Porthmadog through the creative eyes of these exceptional young people.
