Waterside Arts 1 Waterside Plaza Sale M33 7ZF Tickets: £30 (for both days) Workshop timings: 13:00-15:00 on both 20 March & 28 April 2026. Led by voice coach Paul McFadden, this orkshop series is suitable for artists & creatives seeking more knowledge and confidence in public speaking - during interviews, developing online content, when presenting their work in public or in one-to-one commercial pitching sessions. The workshops aim to empower artists to make the most from opportunities to talk about their work when meeting with commissioners, programmers, funders and curators, or when asked to talk about their work. The first session will focus on developing the skills and techniques, including breath control, posture and projecting your voice - for how to get yourself ready so that you're able to be relaxed and speak confidently about your work in a range of settings. The second session will be an opportunity to share within the group how you've been able to apply learnings from the first workshop. This will include a chance for reflection and further guidance on next steps as you continue to refine your presentation skills. These events are a space where creatives can learn and take risks in a safe and supportive environment. About The Trainer Paul McFadden Paul is a highly qualified vocal teacher and pianist.
