Return: Drop-in Workshop

MAIA is an artist-led social justice organisation, working from our home city, Birmingham, UK. Our work asks what it takes to move from imagination to liberation, exploring the role of artists in that movement. We explore this in community, through the creation of spaces, public programmes and resources, where Black imagination and culture are the catalysts.Projects include ABUELOS, YARD, Radical Imagination Labs and Art School

About this eventJoin us for a drop-in workshop to help shape the next iteration of Akeelah Bertram’s artwork Return. This web-based work will capture contributions from people around the world and we want you to be a part of this conversation. We’ll be investigating how we can facilitate meaningful connection across the globe, reflecting on the lived experiences of the African diaspora. This will create a rich resource of stories, ideas and provocations around shared cultural and social heritage. These conversations will inform a series of four podcasts produced and broadcast by Sable Radio in Leeds in early 2023.Drinks and refreshments will be provided. For the best experience, we recommend bringing your own earphones/headphones.Drop in anytime between 6-8pm to experience the work-in-progress, have your say and stay as long as you like!Return is produced by Mediale and supported by Arts Council England and the University of Leeds.Find out more about Return on the<a href="https://mediale.org.uk/projects/return-2/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer"> Mediale website.</a>
