MEMBERS’ CREATIVE SPACE – These sessions will provide Members the space to try out new creative ideas and hold artistic focus groups through both Zoom and in-person
This strand of our programme is co-created with Members so let us know if you have an idea of what you would like to see take place here or if you would like to deliver something yourself. Contact us by email on bonny@cardboardcitizens.org.uk if you have an idea you would like to contribute.
