Visible: creative expression proposal

DB Dee Brooks Public Seen by 41

VISIBLE

Making the invisible, visible.

 Background – the ‘why’:

Supporting people to find their own creative expression.

The expression of emotion is incredibly important for the wellbeing of humans. After all, emotions are energy and energy needs a place to go. Being creative has long been a valuable way for people to put their emotional energy into something healthy and healing; dance, art, music, sports, writing etc. Creative therapies create a sense of belonging, but unfortunately, some people may not have found a healthy place for that energy to go. They might be afraid to be creative, or perhaps they believe they are not a creative person. Is there a way that we can harness this energy and support individuals to discover, hone and pursue their own creative expression?

Fostering this could be good for Jeder as an organization and as change-makers; we create and nurture ourselves and our creativity.

Please see the full proposal here: Creative Expression Proposal 2021

The Ask

We would like to invite a Core Team to join us around this idea and make it happen!

A date poll for a first meeting will be sent after the 10 day proposal feedback period!

I have a lot of ideas and feelings for this. I'd love to be involved in bringing a creative, inclusive and artistic vision like this to fruition.

well you know me - happy to be in the experiential brains trust - so much good in there = I see a 'come-unity' much more than a festival though can see it evolving to that for sure :-)

I have never thought of myself as creative but now is the time to change that way of thinking. I'm in as part of looking after myself.
