Creative Participation
What is Creative Participation?
Engaging the head, hands, and heart through creative activities like arts, crafts, print making & photography. Experimenting with ideas and expressing ourselves in ways that help us better understand each other and the world around us.
Our ‘Creative Participation’ workshops offer a practical, tangible and hands on way for people to explore a range of topics such as health, wellbeing, safety and community in a way that is accessible, interactive and inclusive.
How does it work?
Our workshops are highly flexible and tailored to suit your specific requirements.
We design and facilitate creative, participatory approaches that can be applied in diverse settings whether you’re a Social Sector Organisation, School, College, Community Group, or Public Service.
From supporting Community Engagement to visualising impact, our Creative Participation workshops provide practical tools for research, evaluation, and storytelling. We also support organisations with Strategic Planning and Staff Development.
They can be delivered as stand-alone sessions, integrated into larger projects, or offered as a series of workshops culminating in a showcase event to share the work created.
If you’re looking for an accessible and engaging way to connect, share stories, and demonstrate your impact—let’s talk!
