So I am finally ready to share this with the world. It's been an amazing journey with some of the most brilliant people. The Embers Handbook is now live and available to Pre-order. Please do share widely & get in touch, I would love to hear what you think katharinewheeler.com/publica…
I’ve decided to leave this platform, it’s just not a place I can believe in any more…not imagining many will see this but for those that do I’m on LinkedIn more these days and will persevere with Instagram for awhile yet.
We went to Parliament surrounded by amazing people doing great things! Massive thanks to @colinsmythmsp & Emma Harper, the brilliant @Rosie_Lynch o @CallanWUnion @Art27Scotland, @LochsideLIFT16 & all those who joined/are having conversations this work needs #CultureInCommunities

The space where Community Development butts up to Creative Practice is where I find most hope that we can do things differently

First we heard from Sarah Pennington about her work in Hull with Hari arts, the transient role artists can play in getting things going. Adrian shared some of the beginnings of Union, school for creativity and activism and how they encourage reflective working
It was pretty special to be in a workshop today using these cards with someone else facilitating! Thank you @heads_together and Union Arts
Thinking about the roles we play in community embedded work, and what different roles are needed using @KWheelArt Embers handbook build our Creative Placemaking machines…a lot of fun!! And a ton of ideas to take forward
