Overview

A Create Conversations event for Creativity and Wellbeing Week.

Join us during Creativity and Wellbeing Week for a Create Conversations webinar on the topic “Creativity without barriers”.

This online panel discussion will look at the role creativity can play in supporting more marginalised groups and individuals, and how to expand access to the arts to those who need it most. We’ll explore how the arts can empower people and communities to make positive changes in challenging times, and how creativity can unlock new possibilities.

Join our panel as we explore:

  • Why is it important to expand access to creativity for those who are marginalised and excluded?
  • What are the key barriers to participation in the arts – and how do we overcome them?
  • How do we move the topic of creative arts access and its wellbeing benefits higher up the agenda?
  • What opportunities for positive change can we create by bringing creativity to those who need it most?

Our panel of experts:

  • Dr Simon Opher MP (moderator)
  • Dr Tola Dabiri - Director of Electric Piers CIC, Chair of Advocates for Representation in Creative Health
  • Nicky Goulder MBE – Founding CEO of Create
  • Jemilea Wisdom-Baako - Cultural Disruptor, Poet, Creative Director

Create Conversations is an initiative of Create, a multi-award-winning charity empowering lives, reducing isolation and enhancing wellbeing through the creative arts.
