About Event

You are creative and you can make change. Join us as we Gather Round using our collective creativity to take action on global issues. For young people, aged 18-30.

Let's come together using a series of creative acts like collage, writing and movement, to build community, shift narratives and shape futures.

What to expect?

The day will be shaped by the people in the room, but we expect to use our creativity to explore global issues. Themes might include social justice, inclusion, climate, mental health - whatever you want to bring to the creative discussions.

“How can we use our creativity to make change? Why now?”

There will be a series of creative ideas we will share in response to this question. For example..."Craft your dream community space. Think about things that might be considered as “luxuries” but are necessities for you and your community to thrive, not just survive.”

We also invite you to bring an idea or invitation you'd like to share or explore with the group. We'll spend some creative time together and then close the session thinking and planning how to translate ideas into action and how to stay connected.

11.30am - 12pm | Arrivals & Refreshments
