Co-Creating Southampton: A Day of Shared Practice

Date: 25 March 2026
Time: 14:15–17:15
Where: Mayflower Studios, Guildhall Square, Southampton

Join colleagues from across Southampton’s cultural and community sectors for an afternoon dedicated to exploring, celebrating and strengthening co-creation. Hosted at Mayflower Studios, this focused gathering brings together organisations including Zoielogic, Energise Me, InFocus Education and African Activities to share case studies, learning and approaches from recent co-creation projects in the city.

Together, we’ll connect practice with purpose – exploring how collaborative cultural work can nurture a sense of belonging, improve community cohesion and shape Southampton’s future. Through conversations, on-stage talks and shared learning, we’ll reflect on what helps people feel they belong, and what co-creation can mean for the city’s evolving cultural landscape.

Whether you’re already working co-creatively or are curious about where to begin, this is a chance to learn, reflect, meet new collaborators and help shape a shared approach for the years ahead.

Bring your experience. Bring your questions. Bring your curiosity.

Delivered in partnership with African Activities, InFocus Education, Energise Me, Southampton Forward and Zoielogic.
