In October 2008, the Arts Council hosted a reflection and evaluation workshop for groups funded through the Young Ensembles Scheme. This highly interactive workshop, facilitated by David Kelly of the National Association of Youth Drama, aimed to gather recommendations and feedback about the pilot scheme and to give ensembles that received funding in 2008 an opportunity to meet each other and exchange experiences. 45 young people and leaders from 16 ensembles, representing a range of art forms including film, dance, drama, writing, music, circus and street arts, shared their insights and ideas throughout the day.
