Library Activities
Activating Libraries across Greater Manchester
Libraries are more than rooms where you have to whisper—they are vibrant cultural hubs right on your doorstep.
Through a community-first, co-designed approach, EYM is working together with local residents, library staff, and schools to transform some of Greater Manchester libraries into centers of creative energy.
From early years soft play to high-energy movement, touring dance theater, and youth-led showcases, we’re handing over the keys to the next generation.
We are working with:
Abraham Moss Library
New Moston Library
Miles Platting Library
Newton Heath Library
Talent Show
Whether you sing, dance, play an instrument, perform magic, tell jokes, paint, or have a unique skill nobody else knows about—this is your space. You don’t need to be a seasoned performer or have years of experience; our Talent Show is all about taking part, having fun, and celebrating what makes you you in a warm, welcoming, and supportive environment.
Who can enter? Open to all North Manchester residents aged 7–18.
Deadline to sign up: 20th December

Your library is your space—and we want to help you shape it! Whether you’re looking for a new weekend club, dance sessions, creative workshops, storytelling, or just a cozy spot to hang out with friends and family, tell us what matters to you.
