We are delighted that our programme of creative community activities at Volcano has been supported by a generous grant of £50,000 by the Postcode Community Trust. That's a whole lot more creativity in Swansea made possible by #postcodelotterypeople. Diolch!

Artist Karim Kamil is showing three children how to use spraypaint to make a graffiti piece on a wall in an alleyway at the side of the theatre.

Two members of our men's creative wellbeing group are working on an electronics problem. They are sitting at a table with a book open and an appliance with a circuit board.
