Join us for a free, fun, hands-on participatory art workshop where everyone creates and connects through lines and stories!
Ten years ago, the UK voted to leave the EU. For the millions of EU citizens living in Britain that result was not an abstract political event: it was a moment that changed their sense of home, security, and belonging. Drawing on real testimonies collected from EU citizens as part of research into post-Brexit migration, this workshop invites participants to encounter that research not as data or argument, but as something you can ‘translate’ into art. Working with carefully selected excerpts from those testimonies, you will create linocut prints that give visual form to lived experience. No prior artistic experience is needed. The process of cutting, inking, and pressing is accessible to everyone, and the act of making together is itself part of what the workshop is about: translating words into images, and private experience into shared expression.
The workshop is led by Beetroots Collective, an Edinburgh/Glasgow-based Community Interest Company. The prints created during the workshop will become part of a public archive of Brexit testimonies, connecting the afternoon's making to a longer project of documentation, advocacy, and memory. For academic colleagues the work can also serve as an introduction to participatory art as a knowledge exchange / impact method.

Join us for a fun, hands-on participatory art workshop where everyone creates and connects through lines and stories!

Learned so much about care and community at this year’s UNESCO RIELA Spring School. It’s such a great event. I sincerely reccomend it to everyone who would like to find hope and resistance in humanity against inhumane systems that seek to divide us. And my badminton trainers turned out to be an inspiration for a lovely drawing 😍.
