In the third and final Collage and Conversation session of 2024, we will be diving into an exploration of utopias and collectively designing alternative futures.
Inspired by reading prompts and facilitated discussion, we will create a group collage which will explore new visions for the world, looking at housing, healthcare, education, transport, border justice and beyond.
The event will be two hours but there will be 15 minutes at the beginning and end of the session for optional grounding practices and decompressing.
This workshop is part of the ‘Collage and Conversation’ series that took place over September and October. You do not need to have attended other sessions to participate.
CW: Fascism: Racism, homophobia, transphobia, ableism, etc.
