Come as you are and step into a space of expression, connection, and empowerment. This multimedia workshop invites community members to explore the richness of individual and collective storytelling through song, craft, and poetic writing.
Through voicework, hands-on making, and creative writing, we’ll reconnect with self, ancestors, and one another—unearthing stories that live in our bodies and memories. You’ll be supported with grounding, energising, and regulating practices that open space for joy, healing, and authentic expression. Whether you’re drawn to singing, crafting, or writing, you’ll be encouraged to follow the threads that speak to you most and create something meaningful—solo or in community.
Let’s come together to honour our stories, celebrate our creativity, and remember the power we hold.
Facilitator: Liz Ikamba
