Meeting
Neurodivergent / Funkis Cultural Workers Forum

Neurodivergent / Funkis Cultural Workers Forum is a monthly open meeting offering space to discuss whatever might be on your mind as a neurodivergent/funkis person working in the arts. The group is open and friendly. The meetings are held in UKS’ kitchen, outside of opening hours, so we have the house to ourselves.

We start off by introducing ourselves and each person says something they feel comfortable sharing – it can be just your name, why you’re here, how you’re feeling, what you do or something else. There is no set theme for this meeting, but a common theme may emerge during the introductions, which we can then delve into. We end our meetings with suggestions for topics for the next meeting and have a social gathering at the bar next door, if that’s your thing.

The forum is a democratic, open, safe(r) space with collective care at its heart. The meetings are facilitated by artist and curator Aidan Moesby. There is no restriction on artform or practice – like many marginalised groups, we are stronger together! We end our meetings with suggestions for topics for the next meeting and have a social gathering at the bar next door, if that’s your thing.

You are all most welcome to join!

*Aidan Moesby (b. 1967, UK) is an artist, curator and writer bringing a nuanced approach to the emotional context of working with climate change and the deep inter-connectedness between the natural and social environments within modern life
