SPOKEN: LEADING CULTURAL CONVERSATIONS" We are a collective of change-makers who champion the power of creative and cultural expression as a catalyst for social action and positive change.Spokenis much more than a new spoken-word cultural event - Spoken is a process leading on some of the big cultural and community conversations of our time. Spoken explores how we live together, it is driven by cultural exchange and is using the power of organising and collective creativity to help generate better futures for our community, both locally and right across our society.Through Spoken people are expressing their diverse cultural perspectives, exploring their cultural resources and identifying the kinds of public cultural investment people need in their communities to realise aspirations for a better future.By linking the process of community organising to a process that’s geared towards positively developing the collective culture, Spoken exists to build the strength of our community, renovate our democratic culture and respond creatively to the challenges of our times.
