WELLBEING
FESTIVAL
We've spent a year learning from racialised creatives about what wellbeing actually looks like. On 13 September, we're launching our first wellbeing festival, celebrating those conversations and inviting you to shape what comes next. Workshops, performances, community meal, a keynote from a major political voice, flash talks + more.

NETWORKING HOUR
Copies of our Phase 1 research report will be available at the festival. This report brings together a year of conversations with racialised creatives across Scotland about their wellbeing, their struggles, and what care actually looks like. Published earlier in September, it's the foundation for this festival and everything we're exploring together on the day.
