We are thrilled to host another edition of Holding Space in Cardiff, part of a series of gatherings on art, displacement and mental health.

For this in-person gathering, we will hold space for artists, organisers, health, cultural and migrant justice workers based in and around Cardiff to come together to consider the role of art and creativity and its impact on the mental health and wellbeing of sanctuary seekers.

The day will be structured around short panel conversations with guest speakers, interactive workshops, performances and group discussions offering an opportunity to reflect on what good practice looks like and to discuss some of the opportunities and challenges that may be faced when developing creative projects by and with newly arrived communities. The day will also feature some artistic interventions, reflecting on the themes of the day.

We are especially excited to to be joined by incredible guest speakers and facilitators from Gentle/Radical, Oasis One World Choir, Joy Club and the Welsh Refugee Council.

There are limited number of spaces available. If you think you should be invited, please write to maren@counterpoints.org.uk
