12:30am – 2pm: Creative Writing with Wordsmiths
In this fun workshop, attendees are guided through structured writing activities and games to enable them to create and share a mixture of fictional and true stories based on their own experiences.
The group setting allows each person to firstly build confidence by sharing work that they have created from nothing, and secondly to build empathy towards other people in their community by hearing their stories in their words. The goal is to enable a creative way to communicate and to understand thoughts and ideas whilst having fun.

4pm – 5:30pm: Visual Art Workshop with Artist Constança Saturnino
In this hands-on workshop, participants will explore the creative potential of nature by crafting their own drawing and mark-making tools from foraged organic materials such as plants, seeds, and natural fibers. Together, we will reflect on how these tools influence the marks and lines we create, reframing the act of drawing as a collaboration with the natural world. This session encourages experimentation, curiosity, and a deeper connection to the materials around us.
5:45pm – 6:30pm: Gentle yoga session with Anja Nikodem.
Join Anja where we will be celebrating the change of the season with a gentle Yoga session focusing on the gathering the breath into the body and sharing sounds and breath as we release.
