Monday Manifesto Club
with Katherine Smith
Your task is to dream!
How can we create space together?
And in a horizontal way, with each person being able to bring their whole self to the space?
What could a manifesto be for this collective space?
These are some of the questions posed by performance artist and writer Katherine Smith, who is also a long-standing volunteer at Merton Libraries.
Through a series of tasks using everyday library materials in an exploratory, creative way, focused on imagining, dreaming, writing, connecting, and drawing participants took part in publishing a collective manifesto which will be added to the library catalogue.
The workshops took place on Mondays / 5-6:30pm at Morden Library and were free and open to all working-age 16+ adults
Participants: Emiko Okoturo, Christine Waller, Daniel Foot, Ambrine Boukhafa, Ruma das Ray, Kwame Adjeikum, Silvia Leal, Zoe Burden, Catherine Barrell, Agnieszka Grayling, Alex Lewis, Claudine Dunnigan and Tina Hene.
