Inspired by World Homeless Day, which took place earlier this month, we will join with friends from Coventry and beyond to discuss the value of creativity and what City of Culture might bring to the lives of people affected by homelessness in Coventry.
The Covid-19 pandemic has seen rough sleepers given hotel accommodation as part of the ‘Everyone In’ scheme. But homelessness reaches much further than this – with thousands more facing joblessness and housing instability.
Join us for an open discussion exploring the role arts and culture plays during these challenging times and beyond, and how we can use City of Culture as a vehicle for change.
Featuring music, poetry and more. Everyone welcome.
