New for 2026 we are working with Essex Cultural Diversity Project, Clacton Arts Centre and others on Clacton Rocks! a special family/community day that is taking place in multiple venues across Clacton on Saturday 20 June.
One event not to be missed is our Know Your Beach Workshop (BSL signed), which is taking place between 10am-12pm on Clacton Beach, led by Libby Scarfe from Sea Explorers.
Our young participants will be looking for treasures that the seaside has to offer to inspire some creative art from around the world. Followed by salty storytelling and the promise of some marina mischief.
It suits 5-11 years but everyone is welcome to join in.
The Human Library is coming to Clacton!
Just like in a real library, a visitor to the Human Library can borrow a book from a range of titles. The difference is that books are PEOPLE, and reading is a CONVERSATION.
Books in our Human Library come from all walks of life, and each has an experience to share. Come along, connect with people you wouldn’t normally meet, and celebrate positive differences in our communities.
Want to be a Human Book?
Do you defy a stereotype? Are you like an open book and do you have valuable experiences that readers could benefit from learning about? Are you motivated to help challenge stigma and stereotypes through dialogue and personal conversations? Then maybe we can publish you to our readers.
