Welcome to GLOW Byd Bach
A new voice for LGBTQIA+ youth and young adults in the Cardigan area run by Small World Theatre and headed up by Faye Brightman Drama.
GLOW Byd Bach has previously run weekly creative sessions during term times for young people aged 13 - 21, as well as offering support through dialogues around identity and inclusion. We strive to enable members to have the freedom to be themselves in a non-judgemental space, where they can be empowered to feel pride in their identities.
Since starting GLOW through the Amethyst project in 2023, we are branching out into creating fun and engaging events for all ages. We've realised that it's not always possible to come to our venue in Cardigan, so we're experimenting with widening our engagement through our new social media accounts and brand new online queer film event on 13/4/24.
Iris Prize LGBTQ+ Film Festival
We screened three AMAZING short films in a GLOW queer film night online with queer themes loaned to Small World Theatre by Iris. Our aims were to reach LGBTQIA+ people who are interested in the film and the arts in Wales. We also hope this will be an entertaining, inclusive and intergenerational event that includes friends and families. The Iris Prize LGBTQ+ Film Festival is a film and media organisation committed to increasing audiences for LGBTQ+ stories. More information here irisprize.org
