Urban Camfire – Free Creative Worskshop
Urban Campfire is a FREE creative workshop at AMPP Studio in Ipswich for young men, aged 14–19. It is a welcoming space for young men to connect and share experiences in a relaxed, creative and supportive environment. It is inspired by the tradition of gathering around a campfire. The programme brings people together through music production, video production and sharing food, which naturally creates opportunities to talk, express themselves, learn new skills and explore their ideas.
It is led by experienced mentors and creative practitioners. Urban Campfire helps young men build confidence, friendships and practical creative skills, in a time where masculinity is often under scrutiny and the need for positive, grounded male role models has never been more important. Programmes like Urban Campfire remind us that safe spaces, and strong mentorship can make a lasting difference.
