Come along to our free storytime and workshop for Refugee Week!

Taking place at Colchester Library at 10am on the 22nd June, come and celebrate Refugee Week and the brilliant work of RAMA (Refugee, Asylum Seeker & Migrant Action) with storytime and a practical workshop for little ones and their parents.

The Mercury Theatre was awarded theatre of sanctuary in 2023, with libraries across Essex being awarded this status this year. Sanctuary status highlights the work done in organisations to provide support, dignity and welcome to refugees and people seeking sanctuary.

To celebrate Refugee Week 2024, the Mercury Theatre and RAMA will be touring local libraries (Colchester, Harlow and Clacton) with free storytime workshops for children aged 5+ and their families. We hope to see you there!

All are welcome but story and activities are designed for children aged 5 and up.
