Culture Declares East was launched in March 2022 & in that time we’ve held 7 events, 4 online & 3 in person. And we have funded plans for two funded Cultural Assemblies.
We are Lucy Enskat, Genevieve Rudd and Bridget McKenzie. We’ve enjoyed making these happen over the past year. However, life is making other plans for each of us and we have very little capacity to continue alone.

In Climate Museum UK we've launched this new website Imagine Futures - creative tools for imagining futures with young people, in face of the Earth crisis. Please read, share, use, comment etc. https://imaginefutures.net/ #possitopia #PossitopiaNorwich #CultureTakesAction

Thinking about how we design communications & narratives about the Earth crisis. I'm assuming participatory & questioning approaches work best and that time & reiteration are vital. Not quick hits that leave people confused & resistant. Theorising that we need to spend more time on causes & solutions, less on impacts. Suggesting something like the design diamond, open-close-open-close. An increasing integration of sense, emotion, idea & action. #CultureTakesAction #ClimateMuseumUK

Read more about the Emerging Practitioners programme here, that includes a link to the crowdfunder to support it. #ClimateMuseumUK #CultureTakesAction https://climatemuseumuk.org/2022/09/06/emerging-practitioners-programme/

Getting more rooted into #Norwich as the base for my
#ClimateMuseumUK
practice. Planning a #PeopleTakeAction workshop. Delivering an #ImagineFutures workshop for schools tomorrow. This is #ImaginationActivism & #RegenerativeCulture applied to a City. #CultureTakesAction

We in Culture Declares Emergency are in Mastodon. Follow on @CultureDeclares for lively stories & discussions about how #CultureTakesAction (No posts yet but soon soon)

Setting some intentions for the year.

Joining the movement of individuals and organisations involved in arts and culture who are declaring a climate and ecological emergency.

Working with local creatives to establish Dudley People’s School for Climate Justice, hopefully as part of a Culture Declares Emergency Hub for Dudley.
