Join artist and facilitator Roseanna Dias to explore what it means to listen more deeply, to ourselves, to each other, the non-human and more.
What might deeper listening unearth, shift, grow? The workshop will draw on somatic (mind-body) practices, individual and group reflection, writing prompts and poetry, so you can spend an evening tuning in and going deeper.
Expect a comfortable and cosy set up, hot drinks and breaks. Please let us know about any access requirements, accommodations and requests – we want this to be a space where everyone can participate in the ways that feel truly good to them.
Refreshments will be provided to all participants.

Free Reed Project
Created by Savinder Bual, ‘Free Reed’ is an interactive sculptural installation that highlights the importance of freedom of speech and deep listening, providing a space for contemplation and discussion.
The installation will be accompanied by a 10 day programme of free workshops and interventions that invite participants to address questions such as: ‘whose voices are amplified or silenced?’, ‘who really listens?’, and ‘do we truly listen?’
