4.30pm–5.45pm: Workshop exploring the theme of 'touch' (Bury Park exclusive) - callout for participants
Actress and playwright Sudha Bhuchar — recipient of the Revoluton Arts/Wellcome Collection commission — is exploring the theme of touch with communities in Luton, connected in any way to Bury Park.
The theme of touch is even more resonant as people are honouring social distancing and staying at home.
Are you finding other ways to keep 'in touch' with your loved ones and mark occasions, happy and sad?
Sudha is running online writing workshops every Thursday from 30 April for 4 weeks from 4.30pm to 5.45pm.
We are inviting participants to explore this turbulent period through the lens of 'touch' and come together to share your stories.
If you or your family group (family in the widest sense — colleagues, friends, group) would like to attend a workshop, please email imrana@revolutonarts.com
