Art As Activism
Session One – Friday Oct 4, 5pm-7pm AEST
Session Two – Sunday Oct 6, 5pm-7pm AEDT

Art can be a powerful tool for activism. Through various forms of creativity, artists can challenge injustices, provoke thought, and inspire collective action by giving tangible responses to complex problems.

During session 1, Kelly will share a range of projects and what materials would be required to join in. Participants are encouraged to choose a project and spend time across the weekend engaging in this action.

Session 2 is a time for us to share and reflect on our projects. 

D&D 101
Sunday Oct 6, 1pm-4pm AEDT

D&D – known as Dungeons & Dragons – helps foster storytelling and scenario exploration by immersing us in rich, collaborative narratives. Will invites people to come and learn the basics of D&D and learn how this role-playing game can help communities engage in creative and imaginative storytelling possibilities.

Messy Miners
