The Festival was planned to celebrate the Derry and Strabane Region recently achieving UNESCO Learning City Status. Due to the implications associated with COVID-19, the two day event took place online, becoming the first of its kind in the world.
Viewers were encouraged to get involved in new activities across the areas of Jobs & Skills, Health & Well-Being, Arts & Culture and Technology & Science.
Nerve Centre’s Creative Learning Centre rose to the challenge and produced videos exploring animation, making the most out of your technology and even a live session aimed at introducing younger children to coding using Scratch Jr.
The festival as a whole was a huge success, achieving over 40,000 hits on Derry City & Strabane District Council’s social media channels.
Catch up with our videos on time lapse animation and making most of your webcam below.
