About The Makers Series.

The Makers Series is a brand-new monthly workshop series for young people aged 16-30 from Luton. From calligraphy, to film, to sound, to clay, the series will offer participants the opportunity to learn new practical skills and create something original.

The programme will culminate in March 2026 at Marsh House with a young people’s takeover of PLATFORM, our scratch night, showcasing the work of young local creatives.

The Makers Series has been programmed in such a way that you can be a part of it at any time and at any session without feeling left behind. We’d love for you to join us for every monthly session, but if you’re not able to, you don’t have to.

So, here’s to calling all filmmakers, digital artists, designers, musicians, DJs, rap artists, dancers, choreographers, writers, poets, visual artists, actors, producers, creative entrepreneurs, podcasters and more…

If you’re aged 16-30 and live, work or study in Luton, join us. Let’s make something special, right here in Luton.
