What words do we use to describe the world? What ideas, structures, and beliefs inhabit these words? How could we, collectively, re-write our societies? The Writing Gatherings (2017 - ongoing) are sensitive spaces to enact writing as a social and communal practice. We aim to re-think and re-write the narratives that we have inherited, to create new landscapes for our thoughts, feelings, and relationships. We use an empathic approach, working in groups and from questions, letting our practice be contaminated by collecting, observing, and listening together.

Everyone is welcome to join, no previous knowledge is required and participants can write in the language they feel most comfortable in.

While stationary and materials for writing is provided, we also invite participants to bring specific writing instruments of their choice, specifically if there is one of significance and resonance. 

Recommended age: 16 years and above
