What are Come Unstuck Sessions?

Make Shift Come Unstuck sessions are part of a programme of events, meet ups and workshops, for young people, in Bristol, on Tuesday evenings.  Come Unstuck sessions are monthly meet-ups for 18-30s(ish) creatives who are/might be:

  • at the beginning of building their creative practice
  • at the start of a career in the creative industry
  • have more questions than answers and looking for a place to ask them

At our meet-ups we spend time sharing about what we're up to now, what we want to do in the future, and how we can support each other to achieve those things. If you're stuck on what you need to do next to progress your plans, how to go about it, or even where to start - then come along to a Come Unstuck Session to work it out in community with others.

Come Unstuck sessions are a great way to access peer support as well as support from one of our Producer's who can connect you in to our wider Pervasive Media Studio Community which includes brilliant organisations like Creative Youth Network.

Over the next ten months Creative Youth Network are hosting guest speakers, offering one-to-one mentor and producer support, for people at the start of their creative careers to help you  build you creative practice.

Their next workshop Making Connections - A shy persons guide to building your creative network is on Tue 10 Nov, 18:00-20:00. Check out Creative Youth Network's Workshop Programme for more details.

Be sure to  join us at the next Come Unstuck session to put some learning into action.

About Make Shift

Make Shift is Watershed's space for 18-30s(ish) creatives who are at the beginning of building their creative practice, or at the start of careers in creative industries, or might just have more questions than answers and looking for help to answer them. 

We host a series of events, community meet ups, residencies, workshops, and bespoke talent development opportunities all with creative producer support, built for 18-30 year olds (ish).

Make Shift is a great way to connect with other creatives, Watershed Producers, Studio Residents, and the wider creative community in Bristol.

Make Shift is made possible with support from Arts Council England and Bristol City Council. Our Make Shift Camp is additionally supported by MyWorld and our partners in Pervasive Media Studio, UWE Bristol and University of Bristol.
