We know that amazing things can happen when you team up talented artists with local community members and give them time to work together.
So, in Autumn 2020, we brought together four groups of Gloucester residents to collaborate with professional theatre-makers, musicians, writers and choreographers – to produce a series of new creative experiences in their communities.
This is what they made:

Gloucester Presents… Fashion Show
Local residents teamed up with amazing artists to produce their own choreographed fashion show 🔥

Gloucester Presents… SheSpoke
A small group of women took part in writing workshops to express themselves in poetry – which was then turned into a hand-sewn textile banner 🔥

Gloucester Presents… Communities in Conversation
A filmed panel discussion, where the guests are all Gloucester residents – sharing their stories of life in the city 🔥

Gloucester presents: White City x Conrad Murray x Lucy Wilcox
What happens when you team up a group of local residents with a pair of incredible artists?
