A CHINESE arts project is being held in the half-term break.

Apple Xue Yang will lead a series of dance-based workshops over three days at the Park View Community Association, in Chester-le-Street. Activities include making a Chinese dragon for the dragon dance and choreography.

The project starting tomorrow will culminate on Friday in an informal performance.

Free places are open to people aged 11 to 16. Workshops are 10am to 3.30pm with a half hour break for lunch. Participants must bring a packed lunch.
