Artivism Workshop

Hosted by: Freedom Studio

Timing: 16h - 18h

Capacity: Up to 80 participants

Through their Artivism Workshops, Freedom Studio aims to recognize and explore the art inside every activist and the activism inside every artist. This workshop is open to artists, activists, community organizers and anyone who wants to be and do differently. It will harness the critical imaginations of participants, and encourage all to question the socio-political injustices existing in their communities. The workshop will introduce the theories, tools and techniques of artivism and participants will be supported to create their own artivism content.

Worldbuilding as Practice: Birthing Collective Futures through Play 

Hosted by: Kruthika NS (TheWorkplaceDoodler)

Timing: 16h - 18h

Capacity: Up to 30 participants

What if you could PLAY your way into the future you want to inhabit? In this gameplay session, artist and facilitator Kruthika NS (TheWorkplaceDoodler) invites you to reimagine and rebuild the world you WANT through the "Dreaming and Worldbuilding Game." Expect a short meditative dreaming session, collective play and time to make art that gives a glimpse of your new world. This isn't about imagining futures built on dystopia or helplessness, but rather about planting a few seeds for the ones we'd rather inhabit. All materials will be provided and no artistic skills are needed. Just bring your imagination - trust us, you have more than you think!
