What you’ll do
Join us for an interactive workshop exploring how we can create liberated futures through world-building, care and imagination.
Inspired by science fiction, fantasy and speculative fiction, facilitator and organiser Simmone Ahiaku will guide you through creative activities including games, conversations, writing and making.
After exploring how care is personal, political and communal, together we’ll create a collective artwork called ‘The Future is Built’.
All materials will be provided.
Timings
The workshop will run from 15:00 – 18:00.
A free communal dinner will be provided from 18:00 – 19:00 for anyone who would like to stay and eat. The meal will be nut-free and have vegan and gluten-free options.
Chill-Out Room
We want you to feel comfortable to be yourself and experience the workshop in a way that is right for you.
Any time you want to find a space away from the activities, you can head to our Chill-Out Room to lie down or relax. There will be low lighting, comfortable seating, cushions and mats throughout the room. You can also make use of ear defenders, earplugs, board games, stim toys and materials with different textures.

This workshop is for people aged 14 to 19 years old and disabled people aged 14 to 25 years old.
