Events on Thursday 6th May

“In the last few especially, the conversation around activism has grown. We are seeing a new world of activism with social media and influencers - but how has this changed over the years? What about protest? Legalisation change? How do these two worlds mesh? How can you wade through performative allyship and step into a space which is grounded in real, tangible progress? Joining us to lead the conversation are two absolutely incredible speakers - Laurie O’Garro and Everyday Mag Diversity Strategist and Creative Director, Heba”

“Headliner: "Non-binary dungaree enthusiast, Callum Wensley, is a published performance poet, has nearly won numerous slams in the south west, will be representing Bristol at the Hammer and Tongue National Final, and they're a master of creative writing! (not a brag, they just got the government to pay Bath Spa for a certificate that said Master of Creative Writing and they've been going strong since.) Callum explores themes of grief, masculinity, depression, suicidality, family, and all of that is peppered with a humour so dark it has Anish Kapoor looking over his shoulder."”
