Learning through the pandemic
Helping you identify local communities and how you can best engage them, taking you on a journey of activity from inside the home, to the doorstep, garden, street, local open spaces and of course, online.
Intro
Throughout the pandemic, cultural organisations and creative individuals have transformed how they work to ensure people can stay connected despite Covid-19 restrictions.
To capture this innovation and ensure everyone working across creativity and culture can learn from it, we commissioned Common Vision and Creative United to speak with cultural practitioners and share community engagement and participation best practice from the first two years of the pandemic.
Connecting communities through arts and culture.
Outdoor cultural community engagement during the pandemic.
Approaching online engagement.
Approaches to spark creativity in their communities and keep people feeling connected and supported online.
Adapting to work in unconventional places, creating art with and in communities in schools, care homes, prisons and homeless hostels.
Research has highlighted the breadth of approaches to developing safe and accessible online cultural opportunities.
