Our friendly Breakfast gatherings run from 9-10.30 am (UK time), on the last Tuesday of alternating months. These are relatively informal spaces for the community to connect, explore a theme together, bring questions and challenges, and share knowledge and practices. Everyone is welcome, including those who haven't yet declared.
For our September Breakfast, we're exploring:
Collaborations between environmental organisations and artists
Environmental organisations are waking up to the necessity of poetics, imagination, arts and culture in shaping a more ecologically balanced and responsible world.
What can happen when we bring together environmental organisations - who hold advocacy power, resources, data, research and organisational capacity - with artists, who can powerfully disrupt the status quo, tap into people’s hearts and make things meaningful?
What are some of the challenges when building partnerships - how can we manage potential power dynamics, or different ways of working, communicating and seeing the world?
We’ll hear about some unique, brilliant partnerships, learn some lessons, and inspire both artists and environmental organisations to embark on creative partnerships.
