Creative Cuppa

For September’s Creative Cuppa, in partnership with NTW TEAM,  I was joined by Alun Llwyd from creative platform AM, Carys Bradley-Roberts from Creative Cardiff and poet, writer and activist, Amira Hayat to explore why so many of us find it difficult to call ourselves a ‘creative’.

If even creatives don’t feel comfortable calling themselves ‘creative’, how can we expect anyone else to do that? And if we can’t think of ourselves as creative, then how does that influence the bigger questions we’re asking, about how we might build the kind of future for society that we might want to be part of?

In this interactive session, we also introduced a collaboration between Creative Cardiff, NTW TEAM* and AM which we hope will get everyone thinking about their relationship with creativity and maybe even calling themself a ‘creative’!

*Supported by the UK Government through the UK Shared Prosperity Fund, which is being administered by Cardiff Council.
