FA'MA

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, and Dolgellau - with the next one set to be held in Bethesda in November 2025.

Following collaboration with artists Buddug Roberts and Ffion Pritchard this year, this evening will include readings of monologues co-created with Ysgol Dyffryn Ogwen pupils, and visual art installations inspired by sessions of the town's Youth Clubs.

This will be an informal and intimate evening that will celebrate the streets of Bethesda through eyes of these exceptional young people.
