Date: Fri 8th Feb (6-9pm) – Sat 9th Feb (9am – 5pm) 2013
Venue: Manchester, Bridge 5 Mill (http://www.merci.org.uk/bridge5mill )
Community energy projects are using visual arts, poetry and theatre to
engage and involve a wider audience in issues of climate change and
energy.
The workshop will bring together communities from West Oxford, Awel
Aman Tawe (Wales), Eco-Easterside (Middlesbrough) and Sustainable
Blacon (Cheshire) to share, and learn about their experiences using
different creative processes (poetry, visual arts, design, and
theatre) to engage their communities with energy and climate change.
It will combine hands-on experience, with a chance to reflect on
incorporating some of the ideas into your future plans.
We have space for around 5 participants from the Manchester area to come too.
Attendance is free, but a contribution towards food would be appreciated.
The workshop is being organised as part of an ongoing research project
Evaluating Low Carbon Communities (EVALOC – www.evaloc.org.uk ).
If you would like to attend, please email Jo.hamilton@ouce.ox.ac.uk or
call 01865 275 856 by Monday 28th January.
