The Castlemaine Commons Collective is inviting members of the local community to ‘GATHER’ together for an afternoon at Castlemaine’s Theatre Royal this Sunday, December 5.
The Castlemaine Commons are a collective who create media and events to foster new ways of communicating, community connection, sense making, catalysing action and creating the future together.
Castlemaine Commons member Alex Kelly said this weekend they are inviting people to attend a kind of public town hall event to share reflections on the pandemic and where we might go from here.
“With over 100 people already having indicated they will be attending we are expecting this to be a powerful and engaging event,” Alex said.
“We invite reflections about where we have been and where we might be going. For we know that while we are in the same storm, but not the same boat and we want to make space to share our diverse experiences and responses across the pandemic. We imagine an open conversation reflecting on what has happened and looking forward as our responses to covid shift again,” she said.
Alex said they wanted to provide an opportunity for people to gather again and share their experiences.
“We aren’t being too ambitious as we know people are fatigued, but we felt that we haven’t really had a chance to meet and share our stories, reflect on our experiences and look at what lessons which we can take forward,” she said. See today’s Mail for more…
