A conversation about creativity and the arts in dangerous times

Calling everyone interested in creativity; artists, academics, creatives, teachers, community leaders, students and curious minds

The world is facing some big challenges—from climate change to conflicts and declining trust in leadership and the democratic systems that put them there. How can creativity help us rise to these challenges? And what role can cities, universities, and artists play in shaping a better future?

Come along to a relaxed and collaborative afternoon where your voice matters. Together, we’ll explore how storytelling, performance, music, writing, and the arts can help strengthen our communities and reimagine what democracy could look like. Bring your own questions, and let’s find fresh perspectives together.
